How to grow cucumbers

Show Codes

1 Packet (5 Seeds) (KJ1791)

Sowing
Sow seed singly on edge in 9cm pots under glass at 21°C (70°F) March-June (7-14 days Germination). Later pot on plants into larger pots, around 20cm in size, or plant them out in the greenhouse border once frosts have passed. Maintain night temperatures of 16–18°C (60–65°F). Will need support from netting or canes.
More Info

Water cucumber plants regularly. Apply greenhouse shading as required and create a humid atmosphere by regularly spraying or damping down pathways.

Climbing greenhouse types will produce higher yields if allowed to climb. Train the main shoots onto 1.8m (6ft) high nets, canes or strings until they reach the top of their support and then pinch out the growing point. Pinch out sideshoots once fruit begins to develop, leaving two leaves after each fruit. Remove male flowers from greenhouse types.


Outdoor ridge types can be pinched out at the main stem after 7 leaves have formed to encourage sideshoots. Outdoor ridge types require pollination by insects - do not remove male flowers from these varieties.


When growing cucumbers, harvest regularly to encourage, long continuous production. Pick the fruits whilst young and tender before they show signs of producing seeds, as older fruits can become bitter. Harvesting cucumbers is best done early in the morning when temperatures remain cool.
