Cucumis sativus
A mixed flowering slender cucumber with long, mid to dark green fruits, which are slightly prickly. A very resilient cucumber showing strong resistance to pests and disease and can therefore be harvested well into the autumn. The fruits have a rich, fresh, aromatic flavour
Sowing instructions
Sow from mid March to end of April in a heated greenhouse or propagator
Growing instructions
Raise plants in pots or large modules. Plant in a greenhouse or tunnel. Planting distance 100 x 40 cm. Warning: The fruits form primarily on the side shoots! So don't pinch out the side shoots and only prune after the flower truss has formed. When they reach the top wire they can be thinned out by removing the spent vines.
