Growing Bush Pickle Cucumber in the Vegetable Garden

Cucumbers perform best when directly sown 1-2 weeks after your last frost date, but may be started 3-4 weeks before transplanting. Sow 1 inch deep, 12-18 inches apart, with rows spaced 48 inches. Grow in a location with rich, well-draining soil and full sun. While cucumbers can be left to sprawl across the soil, supporting them vertically with a trellis can promote healthy growth and airflow.

Cucumbers are mostly water and perform best with consistent watering applications. This monoecious type produces both male and female flowers. To produce fruit the female flowers will need to be pollinated via insects or hand pollination.

Harvesting Bush Pickle Cucumber

Bush Pickle cucumbers produce 4-5 inch fruits. Cucumbers produce more prolifically when they are harvested frequently while young. Allowing fruits to become overly mature may reduce overall yields. Remove cucumbers using harvesting or pruning shears and avoid pulling them from the plant to prevent damage to your harvest.

Tips From Our Gardeners

"To help prevent misshapen cucumbers, keep the soil hydrated and fertile. Soil testing can help prevent over-feeding, as high nitrogen can lead to low fruit production as well."
