Day 17
Still a little bit of yellowing around the edges, but my baby is still growing strong. I'm thinking it's about time I start planning my trellis.

Will look back for updates, keep the great pics comming!

Thanks for the input Redrum. I have been looking more and more online about indoor cucumber growing (there isn't much... go figure
). I have found a site that stated you have to cut off a lot of the blooms in order to force it to produce fruit. Once my baby gets closer to that time, I'll decide what I'm going to try.
Even if it doesn't produce any fruit, I'll still be very happy. This is my first hydroponic attempt and I'm loving it. It's a beautiful plant even if it doesn't flower.
