Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Sowing Instructions:

• Indoor Sowing (optional):

  • Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date.
  • Use seed trays or pots with a good-quality seed-starting mix.
  • Sow seeds 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) deep and keep the soil consistently moist.
  • Maintain a temperature of 70-85°F (21-29°C) for best results.

• Outdoor Sowing:

  • Direct sow after the last frost, once the soil temperature is consistently above 60°F (15°C).
  • Space seeds 1 inch apart, in rows about 36-48 inches apart.
  • Plant seeds 1/2 inch (1.2 cm) deep in fertile, well-drained soil.

Germination:

• Seeds will typically sprout in 7-10 days under optimal conditions.
• Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Transplanting:

• Once seedlings have at least two sets of true leaves and outdoor conditions are favorable, gradually acclimate them to the garden.
• Transplant seedlings to the garden after the last frost when they are large enough to handle.

Care & Maintenance:

Watering:

• Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during fruit formation. Avoid letting the soil dry out, but ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Fertilization:

• Apply a balanced fertilizer once a month during the growing season to encourage strong, healthy growth and better fruit yield.

Support:

• These cucumbers are vining plants and benefit from a trellis or similar support to grow vertically. This also helps improve air circulation and reduce disease risk.

Mulching:

• Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plants to help retain moisture, reduce weeds, and keep the soil temperature stable.

Pest & Disease Control:

• Monitor for common cucumber pests such as aphids, cucumber beetles, and spider mites. Use organic pest control methods, such as neem oil or insecticidal soap, to manage these pests.
• Ensure the plants are spaced adequately and provide good airflow to reduce the risk of mildew and fungal diseases.

Harvesting:

• Harvest the cucumbers when they are still white and firm, about 7-9 inches in length, before they turn yellow. They should have a smooth, crisp texture.
• For best flavor, pick the cucumbers when they are young and tender, as overripe cucumbers may become bitter.

Culinary Uses:

• These cucumbers are ideal for fresh eating, slicing for salads, or making refreshing cucumber water.
• Their mild, slightly sweet taste makes them an excellent choice for pickling, providing a unique twist to the traditional cucumber pickle.
