Straight Eight Cucumber

Latin Cucumis sativus

The Straight Eight Cucumber is a popular variety known for its straight, smooth, and dark green fruits. Typically growing 8 to 10 inches in length, this cucumber has a crisp texture and mild flavour, making it perfect for fresh eating, salads, and pickling. 

To grow Straight Eight Cucumbers, plant seeds in a sunny spot once the danger of frost has passed. Space the seeds or seedlings about 12-18 inches apart, and consider using a trellis for vertical growth. Water regularly, keeping the soil evenly moist, but avoid over-watering to prevent disease. Harvest cucumbers when they reach about 8-10 inches in length for the best flavour and texture.
