Are you getting baby cucumbers behind the flowers? That is, are there little swellings there? If so, there's absolutely nothing to worry about. The flowers have been pollinated and the fruit is growing. Ain't Mother Nature wonderful?!

Mother nature is great, isn't she?

I love fresh cukes from the garden!
