All-America Selections (AAS) Winner 1983
Sweet Success is a truly seedless, burpless garden cucumber so high-performing it won an AAS award. Slender, 14-inch fruits are terrifically flavorful and free of bitterness, with thin, smooth skin. Vigorous plant sets fruit without pollination; if other cucumber varieties are near, it may pollinate, in which case a few undeveloped seeds may be present. Plant is resistant to cucumber mosaic virus, scab, and target leaf spot.
Direct sow seeds in a sunny spot after all danger of frost is past, or start indoors and transplant when the first true leaf appears. Cucumbers can be allowed to grow on the ground, but for longer, straighter fruit and to save garden space, grow them in a cage or on a trellis, allowing 1 foot between plants. Keep them well-watered, and keep the fruits picked promptly.

Both easy to grow and tasty 4 people found this helpfulEasiest cucumber to grow! No need to worry about pollinators and the plant is very poliferate with zero powdery mildew or other issues. We enjoyed many large (12-15") cucumbers before our spring/summer season ended this year (zone 9b) and will be replanted this one again in the fall.

Great tasting 6 people found this helpfulCurrently growing this in my GreenStalk vertical garden. This is a parthenocarpic cucumber so I am able to grow it without pollinators nearby which makes it easy to grow and worry free. The largest cukes grown so far are 12" long and every one has been the perfect cucumber flavor. To other beginners like myself, do NOT grow this with other types of cucumber plants nearby like I did as some of the fruit will not pollinate. I will be growing this again this fall (zone 9b) by itself - it is that good!

The Best Overall 2 people found this helpfulI have grown Sweet Success cucumbers for two years and they are, by far, the best in flavor with a thin skin and seedless. High productivity! Grown in a cage the vines stay manageable. We enjoy them fresh in salads and they made the best Bread and Butter Pickles (I picked them small). These are the best cucumbers I have grown in 25 years of gardening.

Easy to grow indoors but prone to leaf spot 2 people found this helpfulI have been growing sweet success cucumbers indoors for a couple of years. I love that the flowers do not have to be pollinated to produce fruit. They do tend to get a disease that I believe is called leaf spot. This not only destroys the leaves of the plants, but also dries and deforms the developing cucumbers. For the latest grow, I have been spraying the leaves with an antifungal spray twice a week. Although some of the lower leaves are still getting spots, there are a lot more cucumbers developing than previous grows. These plants produce cucumbers that are 12" to 14" with little to no seeds. In spite of the disease problem, these are still my favorite cucumber to grow.

Sweet Success 3 people found this helpfulPlanted these last spring for the first time. They grew up a trellis to about 5 feet and produced all summer. Great taste for salad or pickling. We put up about 45 quarts of pickles. Will plant this year again.

Very productive but have leaf problems as they grow. 3 people found this helpfulI grow most of our veggies indoors and decided to try these English cucumbers because they don't have to be hand pollinated. Since all of the flowers are female, they need no pollination. I have grown other varieties of cucumbers, but pollinating them by hand is a pain. You have to find the male flowers and then transfer the pollen to as many female flowers you can find. These cucumbers are so much easier. I have grown these cucumber twice so far and each time, I got quite a few large cucumbers before the leaves started getting white spots on them and drying up. After leaf problem started, the baby cucumber either dried or became limp before they developed. I am assuming they developed either a fungal or bacterial problem. Hopefully, Park growers can offer a suggestion to avoid this problem. I have started another pot of these cucumber, and, hopefully, don't have the same problem that I had with the previous plants. On the plus side, the cucumbers these plants produce are large, flowers don't require pollination, the cucumbers don't have seeds as others cucumbers do, and they contain less moisture which make them great for salad mixes. I do love these cucumbers for the cucumbers they produce, but need to find out what the foliage problem is so they can produce longer.
