Heirloom. These vining plants produce abundant crunchy cucumbers the shape of small lemons, with a juicy sweet flavor. Grow plants on a tomato cage to save space and keep the plants and fruit clean, and to provide good air circulation.
Cucumbers want full sun and very warm conditions for best production. Amend soil with plenty of compost and a good organic vegetable fertilizer. Space plants 1.5-2 feet apart and water regularly.

Harvest cucumbers when they are greenish yellow, before they are too mature and the seeds inside are over developed. Slice them up in salads, or have them with dip. They are also delicious on a sandwich or wrap.
