GENERAL INTRODUCTION CUCUMBERS:
Cucumbers, which produce long vines, can be pruned regularly. For outdoor cultivation, a reasonable summer is needed (depending on the variety), and all varieties grow well in a greenhouse. Sometimes it is advisable to let the plant grow outside if fruiting fails! Cucumbers are usually harvested unripe, unless the skin becomes particularly attractive when ripe. Unripe fruits are sliced and used raw in salads; ripe fruits can be spooned out like a melon. Many small cucumber varieties or (extremely) young harvested fruits are eaten as gherkins (pickled) or as a healthy snack with a drink or dinner. Pay attention to the individual descriptions of our species and varieties; some are purely ornamental and NOT edible!
