Description
Lemon-yellow, spherical cucumbers that are tender and sweet. These easy-grow curious yet attractive ‘rounds’ are excellent for salads and pickling. You can expect a long and fruitful harvesting season with this heavy-croppers.
Sowing indoors
Sow seeds in individual 9cm (3 ½ in) pots filled with seed compost. Push these large seeds on their side into the compost to a depth of 1cm (1/2 in). Place in a warm environment 20-25°C (70-75°F). As seedlings develop grow on in cooler, light conditions but avoid direct sunlight.
Planting on indoors
Transplant young plants to grow bags, pots or a border in the greenhouse and providing string or cane supports to train stems up.
Planting on outdoors
Gradually accustom plants to outdoor conditions for two to three weeks before planting out to permanent outdoor planting positions. Space plants 30cm (12in) apart.
If growing outdoors provide a protected shelter like a mini polytunnel as this variety appreciates a warm environment.
Harvests
Regular picking promotes further growth. Water well and feed with a high-potash fertiliser when flowers appear to encourage flower and fruiting.
Please note - These seeds should ideally be sown this season. All our packets have ‘Sow by Date’ guidance on them, this is the date the seeds should be sown in order to achieve the highest rate of germination. You will still see the same high-quality plants if sowing in seasons after the ‘Sow by Date’ but may see a reduction in germination rate
