Sowing depth
½″ / 12 mm (keep evenly moist and warm)
Spacing
Trellised: 8–12″ / 20–30 cm; on ground: 12–18″ / 30–45 cm, rows 3–5 ft / 90–150 cm. Hills: 2–3 seeds per hill, hills 3–4 ft / 90–120 cm apart (thin to strongest).
Germination

Harvest
~55–65 days from sowing. Pick at 6–8″ (15–20 cm) for best texture; smaller fruit can be used for quick pickles.

Pro tip: Cucumbers get bitter if stressed. Water deeply and consistently, feed lightly, and harvest often. Use floating row cover early for warmth and pest protection; remove at bloom so pollinators can work.
