Cucumber Mini Munch F1

Every time we grow Mini Munch we are kept supplied with cucumber throughout August and September and it still produces more fruits until early in November when undercover. We have even grown this outdoors where it is less productive but still tasty and crops well into September, so this variety remains our top choice… Yes this AGM winner is expensive but so very productive, tasty and easy. It’s an all-female variety, pick at 8-15cm long and enjoy. 

SOW & GROW: inside in April/early May in individual pots, keep warm and moist (not waterlogged). Mini Munch does best in the shelter and warmth of a greenhouse (or conservatory). You should see flowers (then fruit) at almost every leaf node. Tie in stems to a trellis or canes to keep them off the ground. Water regularly using a bottle or pot sunk by the plant to keep the stem dry. Wait until at least 2 fruits have formed before you think about feeding

ENJOY: very snackable—but if you don’t finish a whole one, just stand the cut end in a glass of water and keep it in the fridge to stay fresh.
