CUCUMBERS

March 31, 2025

10  Varieties this year, including:

  • ARMENIAN – 65 days, heirloom. 12-18″ crisp, juicy, sweet, burpless, tolerates drought and heat
  • LEMON – 65 days, heirloom.  Grown since 1894 but, you’ll never find it in a grocery store! This thin-skinned, lemon-sized and colored cucumber has excellent flavor and is a great slicer or pickler. Can be eaten with the skin and all; non-bitter and burpless. Plants are more drought tolerant than other varieties.
  • MARKETMORE 76 – 70 days. Open pollinated. Highly reliable, long-bearing, very sweet fresh slicing cuke, a home-garden favorite.
  • NATIONAL PICKLING – 58 days. Produces fruit that are straight, medium green in color, black-spined, and average 1¾ by six inches in size. You can start picking at about two inches in length. The vigorous vines are very productive. Perfect for filling jars!
  • SILVER SLICER – Open pollinated, 54 days. A great slicer with excellent flavor and lovely creamy white, thin, smooth skin. Fruits are 2” wide, 5-6” long, similar to Boothby Blonde with a longer, narrower shape and better flavor. Bred by Cornell University for resistance to powdery mildew. Superb juicy, sweet and mild flavor and good crunch.
