Do you grow outdoor cucumbers?

Cucumber Plants

What varieties do you recommend?

I’ve had great success with a variety called ‘Moneta’ in the past but I can’t find more seeds. (If you know where I can get them do tell!) Last year I tried the popular ‘Marketmore’ but it didn’t do very well at all. What do you grow?

I’m in southern UK.

    You get the seeds from inside the cucumber. You need too let them dry before planting.

    I like straight eights, or the pickling cucumbers. Maybe you can go to your local feed store and have them order you some when they are ordering the rest of their seeds.

    Cukes are heavy feeders. Use compost,bone meal,slow release fertilizer,plenty of space,never water at or near nighttime(fungus).
