Spacemaster cucumber was developed at Cornell University for its highly productive, but very compact vines. Dark green, smooth skinned fruits grow to 15-20cm (6-8") long on individual stems that rarely exceed 90cm (36"). This compact growth makes them a superb choice for container growing or production in smaller gardens. Pick at a smaller size for crunchy pickles, or let them reach full size for slicing.
Matures in 58 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
