My greenhouse cucumbers are struggling, due to the drop in temperature at
night. I bought them 5 weeks ago at 6" high and they've hardly grown.
Other
allotmenteers are having same problem, regardless of variety.

How far north are you?

My three cucs are 4' tall in an unheated greenhouse and I leave the
top windows open all night. They are rampant, covered in flowers
and with cucs almost ready to pick. They were grown from seed.

A bit exposed here at 500 feet amsl facing East. I can just see the tops of
the tors on Dartmoor to the East. If I was on the coast, I'd be ok.
