Green Fingers

Cucumis sativus

Thin, tender skin and crisp flesh with a small seed cavity and great flavour. Vigorous and powdery mildew tolerant vines are early-bearing and highly productive. Fruits are ready to harvest when just 3 to 5 inches long. A winner.

Growing Instructions

Start indoors 3-4 weeks before transplanting into warm soil. Sow 2cm deep in each pot, using bottom heat. Transplant when plants develop their third true leaf, full sun. Space plants 23cm apart in row and 90cm apart. Ideal well drained, warm soil with a pH of 6.0-6.8. Keep plants well picked for better production. Water the soil only, keeping the leaves as dry as possible as they can be susceptible to powdery mildew.
