The Suyo Long Cucumber is a remarkable Chinese variety that is widely adapted and very dependable in a variety of conditions. Use a trellis for long, straight cucumbers, or let sprawl on the ground for circular shaped ones.
Delicious, burpless, non-bitter, almost-seedless flesh. Long (15"), thin, crisp and tender - exceptionally hardy, productive and fine-flavored even under adverse conditions.

Planting Instructions
Outdoor Sowing Recommended.
Plant 6 to 8 seeds per hill (4ft. to 6ft. apart) directly in the garden after soil is warm and all danger of frost is past. When seedlings are 6" tall, select the 3 strongest and pinch or cut out the others. Do not pull, as this disturbs the root structure.
Cucumbers need moisture. Mulch thickly and water well in dry weather. Plant where vines can climb on a trellis or a fence. Pick often, cucumbers left to turn yellow will slow or stop the vine's production.
