How to Plant Cucumbers
Maximize cucumber harvest by spacing out plantings in containers, rows, hills, or raised beds.
Hills are commonly used for vine crops like cucumbers, squash, and melons to promote efficient root systems. Plant 5 seeds about 3 feet apart and reduce to 3 plants once seedlings have established. Instead of pulling, cut extra seedlings to avoid root disruption.
Remember, vine cucumber plants are better trellised. These plants have healthier vines, and harvesting is easier since you can see the fruit. Check here for a ton of information on home grown trellised cucumbers.
Raised Beds
You can plant any type of cucumber in a raised bed. The benefit of using raised beds with cucumbers is soil drainage. Raised beds, in general, will provide well drained soil.
I keep saying raised beds are my preferred gardening method. There’s a reason I say this: it makes gardening easier! It’s easier to reach the vegetables, control soil health, and control pests and weeds.
Suggestions: Keep fruits picked to encourage more production. . Keep soil moderately moist during germination. Water deep and feed every 3 weeks.
Reminder: Plant some fresh dill for homemade pickles.
