I like them both. The English cucumbers are not as wet. If I make a salad ahead of time, I prefer to use them. They don't ruin the lettuce in the salad in day or two by getting everything wet and slimy.
I fill a large container with salad about twice a week. I use my food processor to cut up salad veggies and store in my refrigerator. I eat salad everyday.
I only put the regular cucumbers in a salad right before I serve it. I am growing regular cucumbers in my garden. Also, little cucumbers, not pickles, that are good for salads and eating out of hand.
I go through a lot of cucumbers....love them.
