Description
Sow under cover (protected / heated) from Mid spring, 3-4 seeds 1in deep in a 3in pot in good compost, and thin later to the best one or two plants per clump. (These will not germinate or thrive in cold/damp conditions, use a propagator or warm windowsill)
Transplant no later than 3 weeks after seeding as cucumbers have a tap root that can be easily damaged.
Cucumbers germinate and grow best when summer really gets going, this variety is best under glass, unless you have a very warm sheltered out-door site.
Inadequate or inconsistent moisture causes oddly shaped or poor-tasting fruit. If possible, water your cucumbers with a soaker hose or drip irrigation to keep the foliage dry. This helps prevent leaf diseases that can ruin the plant.
Train on a trellis or wires to achieve straight fruits.
Does not need male flowers removed.
Keep them picked and theyll keep producing.
