How to Grow
Sow seeds 1–2 cm deep directly in warm soil. Space 30–45 cm apart in rows. Cucumbers love heat — they grow fastest when temperatures are above 25°C. Provide a trellis for vertical growth. Water at the base, not on leaves, to prevent fungal issues. Feed with nitrogen-rich fertilizer during early growth, then switch to potassium when fruiting.
