Growing Info
Harvesting: Pick, and pick some more! Overly mature cucumbers on the vine will slow production of new cucumbers. Cut the stem rather than pulling at the fruit, as stems are fragile. To increase the quality and storage time, once picked, immediately immerse in cold water to disperse "field heat".

My first year growing these slender delights and I’m HOOKED! No mold, no pests, and totally manageable for my taller patio containers. Some successive dill at the base? HEAVENLY summer salad!

The tasty green cucumbers were truly THE TASTIEST!! My husband planted the entire first packet I ordered, which was about 6 seeds. I didn’t realize he did that, so I thought the 2 seeds I told him to plant were overly prolific, but I’d say they that for 6 plants they produced well. They seemed to resist all disease (in Atlanta, GA area) and only one pest burrowed into a cuc. Even when they got as big as a baby’s thigh, these were still delicious! No bitterness, just sweet and yummy. My neighbors couldn’t get enough! I reordered 3 packs for 2025

I grow these every year. I like these small cucumbers especially on salads or just slice and eat for a snack.

Best cucumber I’ve ever planted. They are resilient to powdery mildew (till the end of the season), fast growing and they produce crunchy juicy long cucumbers.
