Botanical Interests Organic Homemade Pickles Cucumber Seeds
Making pickles at home is easy with 'Homemade Pickles'. This plant has very high yields, and is ready to harvest early; pick anywhere from 1½"–6" long. They have the perfect interior texture for pickles, but can also be eaten fresh. The 4'–5' compact vines are great in containers. Disease resistant.
Sowing Information:
- Light: Full sun
- When to Start Inside: 2 to 4 weeks before average last frost. Cucumbers are sensitive to root disturbance; sow in biodegradable pots.
- When to Sow Outside: RECOMMENDED. 1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date, and when the soil temperature is at least 60°F, ideally 70°–90°F.
- Seed Depth: ½"
- Seed Spacing: A group of 2 seeds every 12"
- Row Spacing: 36"
- Thinning: When 3 leaves, thin to 1 plant every 12"
- Days to Germinate: 5–10 days
- Days to Maturity: 55 days
Growing Notes:
- Harvesting: Pick, and pick some more! Overly mature cucumbers on the vine will slow the production of new cucumbers. Cut the stem rather than pulling at the fruit, as stems are fragile. To increase the quality and storage time, once picked, immediately immerse in cold water to disperse "field heat".

"Great customer service. Walked in not knowing anything and walked out with a plant tailored plant already potted and instructions on how to keep it healthy. Becky at the register was instrumental in getting me the proper assistance and her customer service was fantastic. I will be back for more plants!"
