Care and Harvest

Thrips are a common pest, but you can use our prevention and treatment tricks to keep pests at bay! Cucumbers thrive in fresh water and drink a lot while growing, so it's best to keep your water level above 60% and top off weekly for healthiest growth.

Harvest cucumbers when they reach 3-6 inches long, look dark green, and after the yellow flower falls off their tip. Cut the fruit at their individual stems. Letting cucumbers mature too long can cause them to taste bitter. Be careful of Cucumbers' small spikes, which you can easily rub off after harvesting.

Taste and Use

Cucumbers taste wonderful raw, baked, sautéed, steamed, or boiled. Try sliced cucumbers in your water for a refreshing burst of flavor (and vitamins)!

Origin

Cucumbers have been cultivated for over 3,000 years and originate from India. They moved from ancient India to Europe and the New World by way of the Greeks and Romans.
