{"product_id":"130490","title":"Snack Cucumber 'Kaban'","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom Turkey we brought this remarkably fruitful cucumber (Sirik Salatalik), which is very popular there as an in-between snack (harvest young) or as a full-fledged, short cucumber if you let it grow a little longer. In the Netherlands, this variety thrives both in the greenhouse and in the open ground, though a favourable summer is of course a prerequisite. The robust flavour is reminiscent of old-fashioned cucumbers from days gone by...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor grafting cucumbers, use this variety: 133000 'Boule de Siam'. As a tool, we recommend these grafting clips: 847525 Grafting clip 2.5 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGENERAL INTRODUCTION TO CUCUMBERS: \n\u003cbr\u003eCucumbers that develop long vines may 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 outdoors if fruit set fails! Cucumbers are usually harvested unripe, unless the peel becomes particularly attractive upon ripening. Unripe fruits are sliced and used raw in salads, while ripe fruits can be scooped out like a melon. Many small cucurbits or (extremely) young harvested fruits are eaten as gherkins (pickled) or as a healthy snack with a drink or meal. Pay attention to the individual descriptions of our species and varieties; some are purely ornamental and NOT edible!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-START --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNames:\u003cbr\u003e\nLatin: Cucumis sativus\u003cbr\u003e\nDutch: Snackkomkommer\u003cbr\u003e\nAlso known as: Sirik Salatalik\u003cbr\u003e\nEnglish: Cucumber\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-END --\u003e","brand":"Vreeken","offers":[{"title":"25 seeds","offer_id":44177527341109,"sku":"130490","price":2.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"1000 seeds","offer_id":44693578842165,"sku":"130490.1","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/9092\/3573\/files\/130490.jpg?v=1750792684","url":"https:\/\/www.vreeken.nl\/en\/products\/130490","provider":"Vreeken's Zaden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
