Our store are high quality seeds sourced from all around the world which are hand picked varieties specifically for optimal growing in Asian. Select Seeds are only commercially acceptable (uniform growth, high germination, long life shelf, top rated market varieties) making sure we bring only the best available seeds at an affordable price.
growth habit1. Temperature: Cucumbers love warmth and do not tolerate cold. The optimum temperature for growth is 10 to 32 °C. Typically, it grows best at 25-32 ℃ during the day and 15-18 ℃ at night. The optimum temperature is 20-25 ℃, and the lowest is about 15 ℃. The optimum temperature difference between day and night is 10-15 ℃. Cucumber has poor photosynthesis at 35 °C high temperature barrier. 45 °C and frozen to death at a low temperature of -2 to 0 °C.
2. Lighting arrangement: The northern Chinese variety has no strict requirements on the length of sunlight and becomes a sunlight neutral plant with 55,000 lux saturation point and 1,500 lux offset point. It grows well.
3. Humidity: Cucumbers are highly productive and require plenty of water. The optimum soil moisture is 60% to 90%, the water in the seedling stage should not be excessive, and the soil moisture is 60% to 70%. In the fruiting period, sufficient water must be provided, and the soil moisture is 80% to 90%. The optimum air for cucumbers is 60% to 90%. If the humidity of the air is too high, it will easily get sick and cause a decrease in yield.
4. Soil: Cucumbers like moisture but do not like waterlogging. They like fertilizer, but do not like fertilizer. It is advisable to choose soil rich in organic matter. Generally prefers soil between pH 5.5 and 7.2, but pH 6.5 is best.
how to plant seeds1. Treat the seeds: Soak the seeds in warm water at 25 degrees for about six hours. Then wash the surface dirt and wrap it with a damp cloth. Finally, place it in a 25-degree environment for it to germinate. and can be fertilized after about a day.
2. Soil treatment: Cucumber seeds should have a lot of humus. It is recommended to mix 2 parts garden soil, 1 part ash, and appropriate amount of leaf rot. The soil prepared in this way has a high moisture capacity. And it is not easy to lose water, which is conducive to growth.
3. Sowing in the soil: The seeds can be sown into the soil after germination and soil preparation. when sowing First, use your finger to dig a small hole in the soil sprout, then insert the seed about two centimeters deep. Water moderately after planting to keep the soil moist. Then place them in a place with good ventilation and astigmatism so that the cucumbers can take root and germinate in about three days.
4. Delayed Handling: Cucumbers consume a lot of water during growth. and usually need to be added every three days until the water recedes during flowering. But also to timely top dressing, initially choosing nitrogen fertilizers to promote the germination of branches and leaves. Additional phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be added later for better flowering and fruiting. In addition, it is necessary to set it on time. Let the vines grow on the shelf you have made.
