how long to refrigerate cucumber
If you do feel the need to put them in the fridge, they can tolerate up to 3 days of cold storage if they are used soon as they are removed from the refrigerator. Seems that cucumbers are susceptible to cold injury if held more than 3 days at temperatures lower than 50F/10C. Signs of cold injury are wateriness, pitting on the outside and accelerated decay. Another factoid: Cucumbers are sensitive to ethylene gas, which is put off by some ripening fruits and vegetables.
