Vegetable plants i.d.

Hi to all,

I'm new to the veggie list, also new to vegetable gardening this year.  I
planted 4 cucumbers and 4 zucchini squash in peat pots, then got them mixed
up before I got the labels in.  Altogether, 5 plants came up... and I can't
tell which ones are cucumbers and which ones are zucchini.  2 of them are a
little bigger and have noticeably thicker stems than the other 3, yet the
leaves on all 5 are real similar.  They all broke soil within a couple of
days of each other, also.  I suspect the 2 with the thicker stems are
probably zucchini, but I'm not at all sure and it will make a big difference
when I set them out as to what kind of spacing they get.  Help would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
