Sow indoors: March to May
Plant outdoors: May to July
Harvesting time: July to October

A taste of summer. Cucumbers are well known in salads and pickles, but why not try them hot with a spicy sauce or in a refreshing cold drink or soup like Gazpacho?
We love making a quick Asian cucumber salad seasoned with garlic, soy, sesame, rice wine vinegar and chilli oil.
