Default cucumber question

Try not to use cold water for plant, it's a shock for a plant and first
which it get rid of is the "fruit-seed". Use normal outdoor temperature
water or if it is in the greenhouse that temp. Other, most F1 hybrids does
not need polination from bees or other insects , insted take off all male
flowers off, better and not sour cucumber will be. I apologize for my Tarzan
english, I hope I helped some.
Although it likes extra fertilizer KAN (nitrate based 27% active matery -
N), preferable by the leaves - liquid ones. Two or three times during
vegetation.
