Sowing Instruction

You can start planting cucumbers indoors. Cucumber plants are not fond of being transplanted. Take extreme caution and care when putting them into the outside soil. When cucumber planted in rows then seeds should be 2″” to 3″” apart. Put little amount of soil on the seeds. Consisting watering will help the seeds to germinate faster.

Growing

Growing Instruction

Cucumber plants require well drained soil. Provide plenty of high nitrogen fertilizer. Also make sure to provide lots of water, for fast growth. Cucumbers grow quickly, and are at their best when picked before they get too big. Encourage new fruit development by picking regularly. Do not allow them to get overripe on the vine or they will slow down, or even cease bearing new fruit.

Harvesting

Harvesting Instruction

Harvest cucumbers for fresh eating when they are between 7-9 inches long and have bright dark green color. Larger sizes of cucumbers have bitter taste.
