Contact UsHow To Grow
For a successful cucumber container garden, sow your Spacemaster cucumber seeds 12mm (1/2") deep directly into their final growing position. Plant 4-5 seeds in small clumps, thinning them later to the two strongest seedlings. Space the clumps 40-50cm (16-20in) apart, with 60cm (2ft) between rows. Prepare the soil beforehand with organic material or a complete fertiliser. Your cucumber seedlings will emerge within 7-10 days. When the plants have five or six leaves, pinch out the growing tips to encourage side shoots for better yields. Keep your cucumber plants consistently well-watered for best results.
