D.T. Brown Cucumber Lebanese

Botanical Name: Cucumis sativus

An excellent, sweet tasting, burpless variety. The fruits can be eaten whole or sliced but are best when picked up to 10cm (4in) long. Cucumbers do best in a well prepared soil with added fertiliser.

We hope you enjoy these vegetable seeds, just another great example of vegetable seeds from Mr Fothergill’s!

At 5 or 6 leaves, pinch out growing tips to encourage side shoots. Keep well watered and prepare the soil with organic material and or complete fertiliser.
