As its name implies, Bush Crop cucumber plants are compact, dwarf, bushy and yet are very productive. This early maturing compact bush plant produces high yields of 6 to 8" green cucumbers. They are crisp, tender, and flavorful. Excellent in salads or for making dills or fancy sweet pickles. Bush cucumbers produce very nice straight cucumbers. It grows very short vines, only 1 to 2 feet long, and is one of the best varieties for container gardens and small gardens.

Direct sow the seeds in a sunny spot in the garden or in containers after all danger of frost is past. Cover seed lightly with soil, 3 – 4 seeds together in groups. Space groupings 4 ft apart.

For earlier cucumbers start indoors 2 to 3 weeks in advance of intended date for moving the plants to the garden. Sow 2 seeds per pot and do not thin. Germinates best at 72 F in 7 to 10 days. Cucumbers can be allowed to grow on the ground or over the sides of containers, but for longer, straighter fruit with better support, grow the plant in a cage or on a trellis, allowing 1 foot between plants in the garden, or one plant per container. Keep plants well-watered, and pick the fruits promptly; they can become tough if left too long on the plant.
