F1 Mini Munch

Description
Mini Munch is an indoor variety producing big yields of small, fleshy, crisp ‘snack box’ sized cucumbers which have great flavour and can be eaten straight from the plant, they are an all female variety so NO need to cross pollinate.

Harvest
June to November (upto 10cm long, roughly 6-10 weeks from planting) Once you see the end of the cucumber changing from pointed to rounded.

Growing Instructions
Plant 45cm apart in well prepared soil in a sunny (above 16°C) but sheltered position, once all frosts have finished! Keep them well watered until established and in dry weather. They can be left to grow wild along the floor but its best to train along a trellis, fence, stake, wire or string. This will not only save you space but it helps the plant to keep disease free and with gravity on your side will help the cucumbers to stay straight. Carefully train them to grow clockwise up a string picking the side shoots and flowers off up to 30cm high. Then only pick the side shoots off and let the plant carry on growing up. Pick off any yellow dead leaves along the way. Only begin to feed once you see the first two cucumbers growing, NOT before!

Plant Height
Up to 300cm depending on weather conditions.

Tip
Pick cucumbers regularly to promote long and continuous harvesting. DO NOT use farm yard manure on your cucumbers, as farmers sometimes use a hormone weed killer on barley/wheat/straw that is then used as bedding. This will dramatically harm your crop!
