The Sweet Slice Cucumber is a high-yielding, burpless slicing variety known for its exceptionally mild, sweet flavor and crisp texture. Its thin, dark green skin means no peeling is needed, making it perfect for fresh eating. The long, slender fruits grow 10-12 inches and stay tender even as they mature.
