Cucumber Pickling Homemade Pickles

The Cucumber Homemade Pickles, 'Cucumis satiovus', is arguably the best cucumber available for pickles. Homemade Pickles has a solid and crisp interior that is perfect for 1 to 5 inch pickles. Making pickles at home is easy with Homemade Pickles. This plant has excellent disease resistance, has very high yields, and is ready to harvest early. Homemade Pickles produces cucumbers for quite a long period of time. Plant in the spring after the last average frost date. Do not plant late as hot temps may preclude good flowering. Cucumbers prefer light, rich, well drained fertile soil with lots of organic matter. Cucumbers have a shallow root system and therefore require regular moisture. Do not let cucumbers get too big because the vines stop producing if over mature cucumbers stay on the vine
