Uzbeki Cucumber

For a fun and unique cucumber, Uzbeki, has got you covered. This Central Asian variety is short and thick with a slightly brownish green colour. The skin is smooth. Inside, the juicy and rich flavour will refresh you on summer days.

Sow beginning in mid-April with 2 seeds each in an 8-cell starter tray for transplants or from mid-May direct seeded in the field. Plant with a spacing of 50 ✕ 50 cm in nutrient-rich soil. Compost and mulch cover are recommended since they give such a benefit. Intercrop with lettuce, turnip, kohlrabi or radish to maximize garden space.
