Sowing and Growing
Wait until the soil has warmed, then sow at the depth and spacing printed on the current seed packet. A trellis can improve access, save ground space, and help keep fruit straight, but the support should be installed without damaging established roots. Keep the root zone evenly moist without leaving it waterlogged.
Check vines often once fruit begins to size and harvest at the length and texture recommended on the packet. Growing time and yield vary with temperature, pollination, water, soil, and care. Use the packet as the authority for seed count, germination range, maturity, and any variety-specific instructions.

This is the first year I have grown these cucumbers. Easy to grow & care for and delicious for eating. Will buy again for sure.
Put up on a arbor and have friends because the yield is abundant and great tasting. All the neighbors watch for me to bring them around.
Very fast shipping.
These seeds were fantastic! Great germination rate. The cucumbers are out of this world. They have been perfect for EVERY application. I harvest them large to juice them. Very few seeds. I use them in salads, very tender skin and great flavor. I haven't pickled them yet, but I can already tell by their texture that they will pickle nicely. I'm SO pleased with these!
