Expert Guide to Cucumbers:
- Cucumbers thrive in temperatures over 60 degrees Fahrenheit and in drained soil with pH levels between 6.0 and 6.8.
- Cucumbers do best when sown directly into the ground. Space the cucumbers 36-60 inches apart and plant in an area with ample sunlight. Sow seeds 1 inch deep.
- Provide the cucumbers with 1-2 inches of water each week.
- Choose a planting site with adequate drainage and warm, fertile soil. Cucumbers thrive in ample sun.
- Grow cucumbers vertically on a trellis. This opens up space in your garden and makes maintenance/harvesting much easier.
