Cucumbers on plant
« on: May 23, 2020, 20:44 »
Hi

I can see 8 little cucumbers with yellow flowers staring to grow.

How many should be growing at once. I have just got the play talk enough 50cm to plant in a bigger pot.

Any tips.

I just leave them to do their own thing, usually - is it a greenhouse female only variety or one with male and female flowers?

F1 hybrid so I think it’s a female only.

Cucumber Bella F1 Hybrid

 I have put it outside. In a area protected from wind.

Yes, it's a greenhouse, all female variety, which means all those little cucumbers should grow to edible size :) good luck, I hope it behaves itself, as cucumbers are notorious for committing suicide  :ohmy:

Quote
This all female greenhouse variety produces good yields of long, 35cm (14") fruits with a superb cucumber flavour and no bitter aftertaste. With a vigorous habit and good tolerance to powdery mildew, Cucumber 'Bella' makes a reliable variety when grown in an unheated greenhouse against supports. Height: 3m (9'). Spread: 45cm (18").

There are about 8. I hope they all come through.
