Cultivation

This is the only cucumber we kept in cultivation after testing several varieties because it yields abundantly on a small acreage, never catches diseases, and does not require any care, treatment, tying, etc

Sow warm in godets in April for transplanting in the garden in May, after the last risk of frost

Full sun exposure, soil amended with manure for an even more abundant production, and watering in case of prolonged drought / signs of thirst of the plant

Harvest de fruits just when their skin starts yellowing for consumption in salads and juices
