The newest addition to the Kitchen Minis® Collection, Quick Snack Cucumber produces an abundance of small cocktail size fruit, great for snacking and salads. And the best part, you don't need a garden to grow these cukes! Plants are perfect for container growing on your patio, balcony, or even your kitchen countertop. All they need is plenty of sunlight and water to produce an abundance of fruit, which is best picked at 1 ½ to 2 inches long. Plants also benefit from being trellised to keep upright and should be pinched when plants reach the top of the trellis.
Quick Snack Hybrid is a parthenocarpic variety, which means it will set fruit without a pollinator. If grown alone, the fruit will be seedless. If grown next to other cucumbers with male flowers, then the fruits may contain small seeds. Plants can be grown year round inside if provided with plenty of sunlight and a warm location. For a continual year-round harvest, succession plant every two weeks.
The Kitchen Minis® Collection was developed specifically for containers and small spaces. The collection has won numerous awards, including Retailer's Choice Award and was awarded with a Medal of Excellence Award by Greenhouse Grower magazine. Park Seed offers a range of Kitchen Minis® to complete your container or small space garden!
