SCP XXXX shortly after arrival at Site 19
Item# XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be kept in its original sealed glass jar in a storage locker no warmer than 22 degrees Celsius at all times, save for routine maintenance and cleaning.
Maintenance procedures entail the following: At the beginning of each month, SCP-XXXX is to be removed from its containment. Once the subject has been removed and taken to a designated research chamber for testing, the jar is to be flushed of its contents, which include the following: diluted Formalin solution (70%) and water. After thorough disinfecting, the jar is to be refilled with a fresh batch of diluted Formalin.
SCP-XXXX, once removed from containment, is to be handled with standard issue medical gloves and checked over for any additional growths. Any visible changes to the subject's anatomy larger than 1.5 cm are to be photographed, recorded, and sent to Dr. ███████. Post examination, SCP-XXXX is to be returned to its jar, sealed, and placed back into storage. Researchers who were in contact with SCP-XXXX are to be monitored for mental or physical abnormalities.
Description: SCP-XXXX refers to a visually unremarkable pickled cucumber (Cucumis sativus) measuring 1.5 cm in length which thus far appears to have biology immortality. SCP XXXX'S main anomolous effect is whenever SCP XXXX interacts with liquid water it will begin to anomolously transmute said water into a compound superficially identical to a cucumber (designated SCP XXXX-1). This process is randomised and is not limited by distance or amount however due to the speed in which it takes place (on average 200 grams of cucumber per month) SCP XXXX requires only standard maintenance and cleaning.
SCP XXXX-2 refers to a cluster of SCP XXXX-1 which will always take on the appearance of a baseline cucumber.
SCP XXXX-2 instances while in their non active state possess no unusual charecteristics and are safe to consume Whenever a SCP XXXX-2 instance enters a environment that exceeds 35 Degrees Celsius they will gain the primary anomolous effect of SCP XXXX however will still possess the lifespan of a average cucumber (50 to 70 Days) at which point all anomolous effects will cease.
Discovery: SCP XXXX was first discovered in 1997 by a
Charles J Moore who was returning from southern California when he and his crew caught sight of plastic floating in the ocean this prompted him to publish several articles about it's effects on the local ecosystem. Upon the papers publication several foundation personal were dispatched to investigate a potential anomily in the area however while the effects of the plastic were in the end concluded to non anomolous a large portion of the matter consisted of cucumbers which eventually resulted in the discovery of SCP XXXX. Once SCP XXXX was removed all anomolous activity ceased. To aid in the containment of SCP XXXX precautionary measures have been taken so that any civilians who wish to take part in any expeditions to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch will be treated with Class E amnestics.
Testing: Shortly after its discovery SCP XXXX was transported to Site 19 for testing.
Test A - 1/5/2000
Subject: SCP XXXX, 1 litre of Water.
Procedure: SCP XXXX is to be left in a plastic Jug containing 1 litre of water for 1 month.
Results: 200 grams of mircoscopic cucumber resembling algae (SCP XXXX-1).
Analysis: SCP XXXX's proposed containment procedures appear to be ideal these will be maintained in-between testing.
Test B - 1/6/2000
Subject:SCP XXXX, 2 Litres of Water.
Procedure: SCP XXXX is to be left for a month with double the volume of water
Results:SCP XXXX provided 400 grams of mircoscopic cumber particles. These particles began to be drawn together by a unidentifiable source
Analysis:SCP XXXX appears to be dependant on both time and the volume of water it has access too. I would like to request to be able too expand the volume of water to a amount more similar seen to what was seen in its discovery. Approved.
Test C - 10/7/2000
Subject:SCP XXXX, One Vat of Water 5mx15mx5m
Procedure: SCP XXXX is left in a Vat of water and is put under observation for five months
Results:At the end of the five month period SCP XXXX produced Seven cucumbers measuring from 10 to 27cms (designated SCP XXXX-2) as well as 500 grams of SCP XXXX-1.
Analysis:
Notes:I would like to request testing start on SCP XXXX-2 as well as continued testing on the capacity of Cucumber SCP XXXX can produce.
Approved.
Test D - 10/12/2000
Subject:D-4784, SCP XXXX-2:
Prosedure:D-4784 will consume SCP XXXX-2 in full and will be monitored until he defecates SCP XXXX-2.
Results: Nothing Unusual.
Analysis: SCP XXXX appears to be safe for consumption I would like to request a supply of D-class personnel to test for long term exposure to SCP XXXX-2
Test C - 5/1/2001
Subject: SCP XXXX, A Swimming pool 50mx25m (previously used for containing SCP ████)
Procedure: SCP XXXX is to be left in the Swimming pool indefinitely to test for the validity of using SCP XXXX-2 as a permanent food source.
Results: SCP XXXX-2 instances were collected and stored in SCP XXXX's storage locker a total of ███ instances have been collected so far.
Analysis: The effectiveness of SCP XXXX has improved drastically over the last few months I theorise this was due to the large amount of water supplied as well as the heat dispensed from SCP ████'s life support systems.
Notes: Due to the simplicity of producing SCP XXXX-2 instances as well as the lack of any observed effects of consuming SCP XXXX-2 I would like to request that SCP XXXX-2 begin being slowly integrated into the D-class food supply along with other anomolous food sources such as Uncle Sam's Meats and cake
Approved.
Date:7/5/2005
"Originally it was thought that SCP XXXX was simply a relatively harmless pickle some would say we acted hastily in taking advantage of its anomolous properties and to those I would say Yes but in our defense all anomlies are unpredictable and if we never used them to further our cause where would we be? In some pit surrounded by corporate giants paying us to look the other way, ridiculous! Never the less my opinion has changed and I take full responsibility for any loss of foundation assets." -Dr ███████ following Incident 24-4-05
Interviewed: Dr ███████, D-4784
Interviewer: Agent █████
Foreword: Dr ███████ is being interviewed due to his involvement and expertise in SCP XXXX while D-4784 is being presented as evidence.
<Begin Log
Agent █████: Good Morning Doctor, D-4784.
[D-4784 sits unresponsive in a wheelchair]
Dr ███████: Good Morning to you too, and uhhh before we start can I request if my name is removed from this document?
Agent █████: You're not in trouble Doctor.
Dr ███████: I know, I know just… You ever just feel like you should be? whenever stuff weighs on you a bit.
Dr ██████ glances at D-4784
Agent █████: No not particularly.
Dr ███████:[Mumbling] eh well good for you.
Agent █████: Anyway now that we've dispenced with the pleasantries. Two weeks ago at 1200 hours an extranormal event took place located in the D-class population cafeteria this event also extended to any D-E personnel as well as a total of four foundation personal all of which had come into contact with SCP XXXX-2.
[Dr ███████ stares into the floor before looking back at up Agent ████]
Dr ███████: I'm sorry ok, I didn't mean for it to happen I just get so excited …when I'm researching things.
Agent ████: Could you please explain so the record can understand what happened Doctor?
Dr ███████: What's there to understand I turned them all into vegetables.

Closing Statement: [Following this interview all D-class and affected personal were returned to their families and or terminated. SCP XXXX was Decommissioned and is currently only receiving the standard maintenance and cleaning that it requires]
