Ashley Cucumber Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Cucumbers are very sensitive to cold. Sow seeds directly into the garden only after the soil has warmed to at least 70°F and all danger of frost has passed.
2. Preparation: Cucumbers are heavy feeders that require rich, well-drained soil. Incorporate plenty of compost or aged manure into the planting site. Choose a location with full sun for maximum fruit production.
3. Sowing: Plant seeds 1/2 inch deep. If planting in rows, space them 3 feet apart. If using the "hill" method, plant 3-4 seeds per hill with hills spaced 3 feet apart. Once the vines begin to run, provide a trellis to encourage vertical growth.
4. Thinning and Care: Once seedlings are 3 inches tall, thin to one plant every 12 inches (or two per hill). Cucumbers have shallow roots and require consistent moisture; mulch the base of the plants to retain water and keep the roots cool. Avoid overhead watering to prevent leaf diseases.
5. Pests and Diseases: Cucumber beetles are the primary pest to watch for. Use row covers early on and remove them once flowers appear to allow for pollination. While Ashley is resistant to downy mildew, practicing crop rotation and ensuring good airflow will keep your plants at their healthiest.
