You will find that they all hide under and behind leaves. It is like playing hide-and-seek with them. It was good that you picked it, since cukes get seedy and I don't think that they are as good when they get too big....but you might want to try letting one get big to see for yourself if you feel the same way.

You make me smile at your enthusiasm.....we should all be that excited every year!
