Description
Grow your own cucumbers outside in your garden – there’s no need for a greenhouse with Cucumber 'Jogger' F1! This delicious 'American slicer' has crisp, juicy, bitter-free flesh that you’ll love. These plants performed exceptionally well in T&M’s outdoor trials during a poor growing season. 'Jogger' produces good crops of dark-green skinned fruits up to 25cm long, with soft white spines. Seed development is slow, so this variety is ideal for slicing into sandwiches and salads.Outdoor (Ridge) types are suitable for growing outside. Sow Cucumber seeds from early March to April for indoor cropping and for transplanting outdoors later on. Outdoor varieties may also be direct sown outdoors from May to June. Sow cucumber seed on their sides at a depth of 1cm (1/2") in 7.5cm (3") pots of free-draining, seed sowing compost. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a plastic bag at a temperature of 20C (68F) until germination which takes 7-10 days. Protect the emerging seedlings from direct sunlight to avoid scorching. Grow Cucumber plants on until they are large enough to be transplanted. Maintain a minimum temperature of 15c (60F) and keep the compost moist but not wet.Product specifications:Position: Full SunHeight: Up to 3m when fully establishedSpread: Up to 45cm when fully establishedSupplied as 1x packet Cucumber 'Jogger' F1 (approx. 12 seeds)Harvest period: July to OctoberDelivered with growing and care instructionsImages shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
