Growing Marketmore 80 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. As a monoecious type, this cucumber produces male and female flowers. Insect or hand pollination is needed to set fruit.

Harvesting Marketmore 80 Cucumber

Marketmore 80 produces medium green 8-9 inch long fruits with white spines. 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.
