Planting Instructions

1. Seed Preparation

• No pre-treatment required, but soaking seeds overnight in warm water may speed up germination.

2. Sowing Instructions

• Outdoor: Direct sow 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep, spacing 12-18 inches apart in warm soil after the last frost.
• Indoor: Start seeds 4-6 weeks before the last frost in seed trays or small pots.

3. Germination

• Seeds typically germinate in 7-14 days at temperatures between 70-85°F (21-29°C).
• Keep soil moist but not soggy for best germination.

4. Transplanting

• Once seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves, transplant them outdoors after the last frost, when soil temperatures are consistently above 60°F (15°C).
• Space plants 12-18 inches apart, with rows at least 24-36 inches apart for proper airflow.

5. Care and Maintenance

• Watering: Maintain even moisture, aiming for 1 inch per week. Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal issues.
• Support: Train vines onto trellises or stakes to encourage vertical growth, saving space and improving airflow.
• Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer every 3-4 weeks to encourage fruit production.
• Mulching: Apply mulch around the base to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

6. Harvesting

• Cucumbers are typically ready to harvest in 50-60 days.
• Pick when fruits are 6-8 inches long for the best texture and taste.
• Frequent harvesting encourages continued production.
