Ferry Morse Cucumber-Cross Country Hybrid

Product Description

Specially bred to produce high yields of crisp, tender cucumbers. Excellent for slicing into salads, on sandwiches, and for many other table uses. Also terrific for bread-and-butter or dill pickles.

In full sun, sow 5 seeds over a hill 12 inches tall and 2 feet across with well-drained soil. For smaller gardens, plant alongside fence or trellis. When plants are 2 inches tall, thin to 3 plants per hill. Plant at 3-week intervals up to midsummer for fresh cucumbers all season. Keep fruits picked.

Plant cucumber seed only after all danger of frost is past and ground is warm. They need lots of sunshine and water. Keep weeds to a minimum with straw or leaf mulch.
