I have never had much success with regular pickling cucumbers until this year. Usually the cucumbers turn out small and withered looking with a bitter taste, but this year there have been many regular sized and plump cucumbers.
My successful cucumber that I tried about 5 years ago was an Armenian variety. I remember some being over a foot long and a couple inches in diameter. They were fresh and plump, and I grew enough to give many away, although most people were afraid to try them because they looked so different from the norm.
