Ich bin neu im Garten und bemerkte, dass meine Gurken in Bällen bilden und diese harte äußere Haut wie eine Art Kantaloupe bekommen. Jede Hilfe oder Ratschläge werden geschätzt. Danke für deine Zeit.
That’s either not a cucumber, or your garden is located in Chernobyl.

They are all curcurbits and some seeds look very similar to one another, but you won’t be making pickles with this one.

I found one on the floor detached from the rest of the plant just now 🙁 cut it open just out of curiosity and it smells like cucumber but there’s just too much evidence of it being melon I’m sad cause the whole reason I wanted to garden was to grow my own cucumber cause they’re my favoriten snack. But happy cause I love cantaloupe so it’s a lose/win situation. Thanks again everyone I appreciate yall 💜
Your cucumber isn’t turning into a watermelon because it’s a cantaloupe.

Cantaloupe. Mislabeled seed pack?

Possible this could be the often imitated but seldom grown cucumber-melon.

Congrats you got cantaloupe! Frankly if i could grow them id take them over cukes! Much harder to grow in my area and it looks beautiful!

I see a lot of comments saying it’s a mislabeled pack, and I wanted to add: also VERY easy to mix up the seeds. Good chance they looked like cucumber seeds when you opened the pack, but the company packaged melon seeds. The app I use couldn’t decide whether we had cantaloupe or cucumbers either.
The cucumber and zucchini wanted to get married, but they canteloupe.

Looks like you are the start of Cucumber-gate! Meaning, you got some incorrectly labeled seeds.
A few years ago, this was a huge thing (at least in Minnesota, US) with peppers. Pepper seeds where definitely not what they were labeled as it it affected a lot of people! Pepper-gate was wild.

Cantaloupe or musk melon? 🤔
I think you’re growing cantaloupes

That sure looks like a cantaloupe to me.
This is clearly a cantaloupe 😂😂

That’s a melon, sir
That’s a cantaloupe, bud.
Because it’s a cantaloupe
Your seeds got mixed up. That is not a Cucumber

These cucumbers came out the same way LOL
Because it’s a cantaloupe
Cucumbers first grow into cantaloupes, then they turn into watermelons, ultimately transforming into a cucumber/charizard hybrid.
Your cucumber looks like it’s turning into a watermelon because it’s a cantaloupe
I had this happen to me … it turned out that it must have been cross pollinated or a hybrid. The melon never really matured properly.
Because it can’t elope
I imagine the melon plant post:
“I’m new to this garden, the owner is calling my fruits cucumbers, is there a fruit lawyer on the sub?
Because it’s a cantaloupe!
Cantaloupes are good too. Pretty amazing in a salad, actually.
Cantaloupe
that looks like a cantaloupe
That’s a melon
The leaves look similar so it can be hard to distinguish melon/squash til they fruit. In your case, it’s melon for your salad instead
Umm that’s a cantaloupe
Pretty sure your “cucumber” is a cantaloupe melon.
Because they’re cantaloupe.
That’s a cantaloupe.
Your cucumber identifies as a cantaloupe.
Seeds and plants look similar, must have been a mix up!
Last year I planted zucchini, only for them to sprout cucumbers. The nursery mislabeled the plants. I fear you’ve been melloned.
