- Sow under cover (protected/heated) from Mid spring, 3-4 seeds 1in deep in a 3in pot in good compost, and thin later to the best one or two plants per clump. (These will not germinate in cold / damp conditions, use a propagator or warm windowsill).
- Transplant no later than 3 weeks after seeding as cucumbers have a tap root that can be easily damaged.
- Cucumbers germinate and grow best when summer really gets going, this variety under glass.
- To avoid bitterness, keep plants evenly moist at all times.
- Train on a trellis to achieve straight fruits.
- Keep them picked and they’ll keep producing.
