Cut cucumbers into desired shape (rounds, wedges, or keep whole), and place them in jars.

In a saucepan over medium heat, boil the garlic cloves, garlic powder, onion, mustard powder, fennel seed (optional), honey, water, vinegar, and salt. 

When the honey and salt has dissolved, and the mixture has created a brine, pour it over the cucumbers, filling the jar to just above the cucumbers. 

Put lids on the jars, and leave them on the counter for 3 days.

After 3 days, refrigerate the jars. 

Enjoy.
