Introduced in 1968 by Cornell University, the Marketmore has dark green cucumbers that grow to 8 in. long. They are easy-to-grow and produce an abundance of tender fruit throughout the summer. The elongated fruits of slicing types are perfect for salads and other fresh uses.
Planting Information:
Select a sunny, well-drained location and sow seed in the late spring when the soil is warm, and all danger of frost is past. For earlier crop, start indoors 4-6 weeks before setting out. For best results, loosen soil with spade or fork, fertilize with vegetable food and smooth with rake. Firm soil over seed and keep moist. Keep soil moist, and feed monthly. Tie vines on trellis to save space. Pick at any size up to 6-8 in./15-20 cm. and before fruit color begins to turn yellow. Pick regularly so fruit will continue to form.
