Cucumbers grow very well in warm climates like the type we are used to in India. They need full sun and can be grown in a container or saplings can be planted directly in the ground. They would need adequate space to climb like a trellis or a wall etc and given some light they will grow uninhibitedly. This variety of slicing cucumbers has sprawling vines with large green leaves and curling tendrils. The seed takes about 3-5 days to germinate post which the fruits will take another 30 to 40 days to appear. The growth of the plant is fast and you will have a bumper crop if you water and care for them regularly. At a time you can expect at least 10-15 cucumbers and you would have to pick the fruits every 2 days.
