Beschreibung

The cucumber belongs to the pumpkin family. It grows as an annual and is very sensitive to the cold. Various varieties differ in shape, color and skin texture as well as growth height. The cucumber grows climbing and is therefore happy to have a climbing aid. It also grows without, but then needs more space.

Anbautipps

As cucumbers are quite sensitive to the cold, you should only plant them out after the Ice Saints. They also need a lot of warmth during growth and a constant supply of water is also necessary. Stress conditions such as temperature fluctuations, lack of water or frequent touching lead to the formation of bitter substances. A cultivation break of 3-4 years should be observed. Cucumbers must be able to hold on, as they form long tendrils (2-4 m). Regular harvesting increases the yield as more new flowers are formed.
