Features of cultivation

Cucumbers are rarely grown in seedlings. Fragile plants are easy to damage when transplanting. In addition, the seedlings are sick for a long time after this and do not take root well. It is easier to sow the seeds immediately in a permanent place.

Cucumbers do not like open sunlight; most varieties tolerate shading well. However, lack of light leads to changes in the color of the fruit. It is better to choose beds located in partial shade with light and fertile soil for planting plants. Cucumbers require regular watering as the top layer of soil dries and periodic removal of weeds. At the same time, try not to damage the fragile tops and leaves.

For ease of care and harvesting, trellises are placed on the cucumber beds. Plants weave along them, leaving row spacing free.

By 2022, breeders have presented the best varieties of cucumbers described in this article. Experienced gardeners choose several species with different ripening periods and characteristics. This allows you to harvest from early summer until autumn. It is impossible to say unequivocally which of the varieties we have described is better. Everyone has their own needs and requests, based on which they need to make a choice. After carefully studying the descriptions presented above, you can choose something for yourself.
