About Us
One of America's oldest and largest mail-order seed and plant companies, the Geo. W. Park Seed Company, was founded in 1868 by 15-year-old George W. Park in Libonia, Pennsylvania. Today our gardeners number in the millions, yet we still adhere to Mr. Park's original motto. We may be connecting online through social media rather than handwritten letters, but the spirit and the result is the same: bringing the joys of gardening to as many people as possible.
Know Before You Grow Cucumbers
You'll find new meaning in the term "cool as a cucumber" when you discover the delights of this delicious, easy-to-grow vegetable. Slice 'em, dice 'em, pickle 'em, or pull 'em straight off the vine and enjoy their unmistakable and delicious flavor right there. They can be grown on hills, in rows, on trellises, or in containers, so there's a variety just perfect for you, no matter where you live or how large or small your gardening space.
Choosing a Cucumber VarietyWhen you choose which cucumbers to grow, you'll want to consider length, thickness, use, and the amount of space required for the plant. They come in a wide variety of sizes, from tiny gherkin-appropriate ones to long, delicious slicers. The pickling types are usually smaller, and some of the slicers are burpless (less bitter and contain less burp-causing compounds). | Starting Cucumber SeedsCucumbers are best direct sown outdoors 1 to 2 weeks after all danger of frost has passed in the spring and once the soil has warmed—it needs to be at least 60 degrees F. They can be sown indoors (at a temperature of 70 degrees F) 4 to 6 weeks before planting out, but direct sowing is recommended. Sow the seeds at a depth of 4 times the size of the seed, siting them in full sun in light, rich, well-drained soil. | Special ConsiderationsCucumber vines produce both male (staminate) and female (pistillate) flowers. The first to arrive are male and will drop from the vine without bearing fruit. The ones to follow will be both male and female, allowing for pollination. So don't become discouraged when the first flowers you see don't produce fruit. There are also cucumbers available that bear only female flowers (gynoecious). |
Growing Tips
If you want to start your seeds indoors, use peat pots or pellets—something that can be planted as-is, thus minimizing root disturbance. Transplanting shouldn't be done until all danger of frost has passed.
Growing Tips
Cucumbers need long, warm, sunny days and mild nights in order to be productive. Keep well watered and fed throughout the growing season.
Growing Tips
Mulches, including black plastic varieties, can be useful in conserving moisture, preventing the soil from becoming compacted, and maintaining the overall help of the garden and plant.
Growing Tips
Harvest your cucumbers depending on their use, and therefore their size. They can over mature (and become bitter) rather quickly since they develop so rapidly after pollination, so check your crop frequently in order to pick them at their peak quality. Cut the stems about one-fourth inch above the fruit.
