Tendergreen Burpless Cucumber Seed, 25ct
Type: Garden Seeds
Vendor: The Seed Supply
Description:
Cucumis sativus
55 Days.
Burpless slicing type, free from bitterness, that has been popular for over 80 years! Fruit is medium-dark green, 7-12 inches in length, and quite plump and smooth compared to Japanese long slicing types. Excels as a slicer because each fruit yields so many slices of uniform diameter, but the tender skin makes great pickles as well. Tolerates cool soil and excessive moisture better than many, as well as downy mildew and mosaic virus. An all-together superior sort!
Sprouts In: 7-15 days
Ideal Temp: 70-95 F
Seed Depth: 1/2 inch
Plant Spacing: 12" apart
Frost Hardy: No
Sun Requirements: Full Sun 8-12 hrs
Planting Instructions:
Best direct-seeded at about the time of late frost, but can be started earlier as transplants, provided the seedlings are set out before becoming rootbound. Cucumbers are heavy feeders and thrive in rich soil full of organic matter. They can be trellised if desired. A bit of afternoon shade is helpful in very hot summer areas. Supply abundant moisture and keep mature fruit picked.
