Cucumber Straight Eight Organic Cucumbers |
 |
SEEDS - Botanical Interests - An heirloom slicing cucumber introduced in 1935, Straight Eight is very vigorous and productive. This older open-pollinated variety is still around, because it is simply a great variety! It has great taste, is wonderful sliced on sandwiches or in salads, and is even good for making dill pickles when picked young. The mature fruit is cylindrical and 8’’ long. An All America Selections Winner. When to plant outside: Spring after average last frost date AND when soil temperatures are warm, at least 65 degrees. When to start inside: 4-6 weeks before average last frost. Special Sowing & Germination Instructions: Plant in mounds or rows, as you prefer. If rows, plant every 4’’, thinning to 1 plant per foot. Mounds should be 4’ apart with 6 seedlings on each mound thinned to 3 per mound. Another HIGHLY recommended method is to plant with a trellis. Cucumbers grow straighter and are easier to see when harvesting with this method. Use recommended row spacing and tie the main stem to the trellis with string or twist ties. Vines may reach 8’ long.
