What's Poona Keera?

What do you imagine if I tell you I am growing Poona Keera?  It is a kind of cucumbers.  This variety originally came from Inida, and it is supposedly super delicious, crisp, juicy, sweet and mild - so why not try grow it? 

These are the seeds.  They look like cantalope seeds, but it makes sense since cucumbers and melons are in the same family, huh?  I planted 4 seeds.

12  days later, the first seedling sprouted, and its leaves opened up in a couple days after...I am very excited! Stay tuned for futher report on this cucumber!
