Cucumber - Burpless
Product Info
Burpless cucumbers are nearly seedless and make a great slicing cucumber. It produces a consistently straight, cylindrical fruit for easy slicing. Fruit is a medium to dark green, 8-10" in length. Tender fruit requires no peeling as the skin is soft and tender. Burpless cucumbers should be grown on stakes for a larger harvest. Disease resistant.

Harvest: | Pick fruits that are 8" and under for the best flavor. Check plants every other day and remove large fruits and discard. Removing these over-mature cucumbers will encourage more production. |
