What is special about our snack cucumber?

The Iznik is the Louis Vuitton of snack cucumbers: you can't get better or tastier.

This variety does well outdoors and in a greenhouse, produces many smooth cucumbers of 10-12 cm long for a long time, and does not become bitter.

Forms hardly any seeds.

Sowing and growing cucumber

Cucumbers are real summer vegetables and therefore cannot withstand the cold. You sow them indoors at the end of April and plant them in your vegetable garden box at the end of May. 2 plants fit in a compartment near the climbing frame. The plants produce long tendrils that you weave through them.

Cucumbers need a lot of nutrition. So give some extra MM nutrition when planting and some more in mid-July.

Cucumbers don't do well next to a box with tomatoes, onions or chives. So always add another vegetable.

For extra production, cut away the side vines, just beyond the first flower buds.
