Cultivation method:
Sow seeds indoors about 3 weeks before the last frost or directly in the ground when the soil is well warmed. Plant seeds 2 to 3 cm deep and space plants 1 to 2 m apart to allow good air circulation and encourage growth. This cucumber prefers rich, well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.0 to 7.0).
For upright fruit and easy maintenance, grow plants on a trellis or vertical structure. Water regularly to maintain consistent moisture, especially during hot weather, to prevent bitterness in the fruit.
Harvest the fruits when they reach their optimum size of 14 to 16 cm to ensure their crunch and flavour. Perfect for summer recipes or as a healthy snack, this cucumber stands out for its exceptional quality and ease of cultivation.
Add 'Magic F1' cucumber to your vegetable garden for a tasty, productive and fresh harvest all season long.
