Product Details

Want to try something new in your garden? This is it! Armenian cucumber with handsome, light green, thin skin is burpless, nearly seedless, and more tolerant of heat than most cucumbers. Sometimes called serpent cucumber or yard long, it is technically a variety of melon! A long production period means harvesting right into fall.

Variety Info

Days to Maturity: 65 days

Family: Cucurbitaceae

Type: Monoecious, Burpless Slicing Cucumber (Learn More)

Native: Southern Asia

Hardiness: Frost-sensitive annual

Exposure: Full sun

Plant Dimensions: 8' vines

Variety Info: 18"–36" long, 1"–4" wide, light green skin with paler green, longitudinal furrows; most flavorful and tender when picked between 12" and 18" long.

Attributes: Heat Tolerant

Sowing Info

When to Sow Outside: RECOMMENDED. 1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date, and when soil temperature is at least 60°F, ideally 70°–90°F.

When to Start Inside: 2 to 4 weeks before your average last frost date. Cucumbers are sensitive to root disturbance; sow in biodegradable pots.

Days to Emerge: 5–10 days

Seed Depth: ½"

Seed Spacing: A group of 2 seeds every 12"

Thinning: When 3 leaves, thin to 1 plant every 12"

Growing Info

Harvesting: Pick, and pick some more! Overly mature cucumbers on the vine will slow production of new cucumbers. Cut the stem rather than pulling at the fruit, as stems are fragile. To increase the quality and storage time, once picked, immediately immerse in cold water to disperse "field heat".

    All the seeds I planted, grew. I am a first time gardener so I’m not familiar with how they grow, but hoping they fatten up soon. They have had plenty of water and I use worm tea as fertilizer, so I will keep watching and hoping!

    The Armenian cucumber did excellent for me and it’s delicious. I always have great success with seeds from botanical interest.

    I’ve been a fan of Kevin‘s for many years now I enjoy all of his wonderful videos and love how he’s brought on many other gardeners with him. I’m really happy for him and his team. Everything they’ve been able to accomplish. I hope he has many more years of helping us grow.

    I have not planted the cucumber seeds yet so I don’t know how they taste, but you’ve always produced a good product. Thank you very much. I love the videos.👍🙏👏

    Strong germination rate on these seeds. I started them mid-season in a container to dodge the worst of the cucumber beetles. They're putting out strong growth and will hopefully produce fruit before the end of the season.
