These productive vining crops are available in slicing, pickling, and unique specialty varieties like the sweet, round lemon cucumber. Whether you choose compact bush types for small spaces or vigorous climbers that yield 10-15 pounds per plant when trellised, frequent harvesting ensures continued production for up to 6-8 weeks. • Growing Tips: Transplant 1-2 weeks after the last frost when soil reaches 65°F (wait until nighttime lows reach 60°F+ for best results); space bush types 12 inches apart and vining types 24 inches apart; provide a trellis for vining types. • Sun Requirements: Full sun (6-8 hours minimum)
