Cucumber Femspot F1
A classic cucumber, Cucumis Femspot F1 is prized for its size, deep green skin and crisp, crunchy texture. These productive cucumbers develop from slender young fruits into long cucumbers with excellent flavour and a satisfyingly firm bite. This versatile cucumber is best enjoyed sliced fresh into salads or added to sandwiches and summer platters for extra crunch.
Supplied as an established potted plant, it thrives in a sunny, sheltered position in fertile soil or growbags. Support with canes or trellis, tie stems in as they climb, and water regularly to encourage healthy growth and consistent crops. Feed weekly once fruits begin forming to maximise yields and flavour. Remove the tip of the plant once it reaches the top of the supports to allow branching. Pair with companions like marigolds to attract pollinators and help deter pests. Ideal for kitchen gardens, allotments or patio growing, where its unusual fruits and delicious fruits make an excellent choice for home growers.
Supplied in approx. 9cm pot.

Plant in rich, well-drained soil that receives full sun. Water the soil frequently to maintain an even moisture level, and mulch to keep moisture in the soil and keep weeds out. In order to keep the fruits off the ground and encourage air circulation, provide support with trellises or stakes. Use a balanced fertiliser and apply it on a regular basis. When the cucumbers reach the appropriate size, harvest them; pick often to promote continuous production.
