Why are my cucumbers white?
 

They taste fine. Early in the season they were bitter...very bitter,
but now they taste fine. Now they are almost white, w/ some streaky
light green. What causes them to be this color. I didn't buy a white
cucumber, I got them from lowe's, and they were supposed to be a
regular green cuke! It's not bothering me, as I said they taste fine,
kinda bland actually. I'm just curious. I live in TN. We've been
getting a decent amount of rain this year. But it has been hot.

1) They are actually white cucumbers.

2) They are green cucumbers that are sun bleached.
