Wecome to the Cucumis sativus page. I discuss all things cucumber related.

Long Green - Dark and smooth in color and texture. Long and green, just like the name. Prolific producer.

Korall - Amazingly productive cucumber. I had 14 of these guys on one plant. And 6 inches in length, perfect for pickling.

Lemon - I am not sure the history of this cucumber, but I can not keep them in stock when I sell my vegetable starts. They are amazingly popular, and they pickle nicely. Seeds saved off plant that produced about 10 baseball sized cucumbers.

Space Master - If I were to discontinue a cucumber, it would be this guy. It was intentionally designed to grow a small plant, but the cucumbers were not consistent in size, really disappointed with this variety.

Straight Eight - The name says it all. Very similar to Long Green in size and abundent, but the skin color is a motted green and greenish/gray color. Very attractive plant and fruit, six of these plants will produce an entire seasons worth of pickling material.
