I have ordered cucumber plants! We're getting two each of three different varieties, the three that just became available GrowJoy.com. Shipping the week of the 11th.
Now I'll need to buy more containers, maybe more potting soil, and ideally a trellis or two, but those should be much easier. By the time I really started looking, everywhere that would deliver here was out of stock on the plants I want. Lacking a car means I can't really go to the garden center (this did not feel like an essential journey that justified a two-bus trip to a place that might not have what I want in stock.
By checking back at 9 a.m. two Saturdays in a row, I was able to order these: for many plants, the GrowJoy website says they're out of stock, and if more arrives that's when it will become available. Six plants is probably more than I need, and might be more than I have room for, but it was enough to get free shipping. And if it's really too much, I'm sure I can find a home for the extra.
