Growing Organic Garden Sweet Burpless F1 Hybrid 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 is a monoecious type that produces both male and female flowers, requiring insect or hand pollination.
Harvesting Organic Garden Sweet Burpless Hybrid Cucumber
Organic Garden Sweet Burpless cucumbers produce 10-12 inch slender fruits with medium-green smooth skin. 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.
