summary from an email of the mailing list: Schildifutter - Mailingsliste

>>
As a plant which stimulates the kidneys you can offer to cucumber your torts. It is also useful as *feedable water*.
Different types of cucumber exist. One is a very thin and long one (which you can buy in every store) and another one is shorter and better in taste.
I prefer feeding the latter one cause the long one often is produced in glasshouses and you do not know its origin.
If you have your own plants, you can feed both types from your own garden:-)
Do not use it as a single food! It is just a goodie:-)
