Cucumber mystery solved

I always check for cucs that are too big, since it seems to shut down production of blossoms/cucs.
I went out this afternoon to pick some cucs and there were only 2 blossoms on the entire trellis. It didn't make any sense to me, since I couldn't find any really big cucs. But then.......AHA! There you are you little (big) rascal! It was hiding on the ground under some cuc leaves. So......mystery solved. I should start seeing alot more blossoms now.

We trellis ours so they are easier to find. They still hide behind all of the leaves.
