	A '''cucumber''' is a [[plant]] of the gourd family, akin to squash. It propagates as a ground-creeping vine which then uses tendrils to climb up more sturdy plants (or stands, like trellis). It produces a roughly cylindrical [[fruit]] up to 60 cm long. The fruit is generally eaten green (unripe) as its yellow, ripe form is far more bitter.
