Cucumis melo var. flexuosus

HEIRLOOM. Highly ribbed heirloom cucumber.

Armenian cucumbers appeal to cuke connoisseurs everywhere. Heavily ribbed, pale-green cukes please the discerning palate with finely-tuned mild, sweet taste. Fruit is at its best for eating when 12" long and less than 2½" across. Creamy flesh offers a nice crunch, superb flavor, and few seeds. Plants are heavy yielders and thrive in hot summer areas.

Sow in average, well-drained soil in full sun in spring after danger of frost. Sow 4-6 seeds about 8cm apart in hills 90 cm apart. Cover with 2.5cm of fine soil; firm lightly and keep evenly moist. Seedlings emerge in 7-14 days.
  • Like most vegetables, cucumbers are tender and tastiest when harvested young before their seeds are fully developed.
  • Slicing cucumber varieties are generally ready for harvest when about six to eight inches long; pickling cucumber types at three to five inches- both in about 50-60 days from seeding.
  • To avoid damage cut fruit from the vine rather than pull
  • Don't allow the fruits to become overripe on the vine as this signals to the plant that the seed-development process is nearly complete and it will shut down.
  • Keep mature cucumber fruits picked to encourage further production. During hot weather cucumbers grow very fast, you may need to harvest every day.
  • Harvest the cucumber fruits early in the morning before the sun hits them for the best flavor and texture.
