Sweet baby cues, popular in the Mediterranean are a refreshing and hydrating addition to salads, juices, and sandwiches and are rich in vitamins A & C. This variety produces a high yield over a long period of time in a warm or cool greenhouse.
SOW & GROW: Sow seeds 0.5 cm deep indoors in a cell tray or small pots of compost. Keep well watered in a warm spot with an ideal temperature of 20-25 °C. Seedlings will appear after around 7-14 days. Transplant to larger pots when plants have developed around 3-4 leaves

TIPS
- Cucumbers thrive in humid conditions
- Regular feed will ensure the best crops once fruits appear
- Cucumbers can be grown vertically in small spaces using canes, strings, netting, or a trellis
- Male flowers will pollinate the female flowers to produce the fruit. They are yellow flowers with no mini cucumber behind them, leave these on the plant until they fade
