This cucumber is very popular in Southern Asia. It has the unique white and green color-type familiar in that area. The fruit can grow to 2" in diameter and about 6" long. The flesh is very crisp and firm and perfect for fresh eating.
Cultivation: Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Sow seeds in late spring/early summer after last frost in a warm, sunny location. Or start seeds indoors and transplant when weather warms. Keep soil moist. Fertilize as needed. Optimum growing temperatures are 75°F daytime and 60°F at night. Train to climb a vertical support for better
air circulation, straighter fruits, and ease of harvest.
