Growing at a glance…
For indoor sowing, sow seeds 1-2cm deep in small seed pots. Keep on a sunny warm windowsill, ensuring its soil is kept moist. If you sow outside, pop them under cover from mid-spring, adding 3-4 seeds about 1in deep in a 3in pot filled with compost. Once seedlings have grown to about 5cm, thin to the best one or two plants per clump. Ensure the weather is warm if planting outside, ensuring a sheltered and sunny position. Cucumbers germinate and grow best when summer finally begins.
