Description

garden seeds india West India Gherkin Cucumber (Heirloom, 65 days)The West India Gherkin Cucumber is a 1793 Heirloom. Although this variety has been sold in the US since the early 1800s, we suspect it will appear unique to most home gardeners. The leaves dont resemble cucumber leaves at all; they look like watermelon leaves. Vines are long and bear multitudes of small oval fruit which are exceptionally spiny. Used for unusual and good tasting pickles, the West India Gherkin Cucumber will also add a bit of a surprise

The West India Gherkin Cucumber is a 1793 Heirloom. Although this variety has been sold in the US since the early 1800’s, we suspect it will appear unique to most home gardeners.

Used for unusual and good tasting pickles, the West India Gherkin Cucumber will also add a bit of a surprise to a salad.

PLANTING

Cucumis anguria

Germination: 4-10 days

Germination Temperature: Optimum soil temperatures 70-85ºF

Seed Sowing Depth: 1/2-1" deep

Sowing Indoors: 3-4 weeks before last frost. Provide 70-85ºF soil temperature. Sow 2-3 seeds per cell/pot. Sowing into individual biodegradable peat/cow pots reduces root damage when transplanting. Transplant 36-48" apart after last frost. 

Sowing Outdoors: Sow after last frost when soil temperature is over 70ºF. Sow a few seeds every 36-48". 

Harvest: Check and pick every day to keep the harvest flowing.

Tips: The West India Gherkin Cucumber should be planted in fertile soil, amended with compost or well rotted manure and kept well watered. Trellising the vines allows for good air circulation, takes up less space and provides shade for heat sensitive crops like lettuce. They benefit from growing on black plastic and by using row covers for weed, insect control, and more rapid growth.

Great Quality and Elegant Look!
Color: 9-Silver-100
I ordered these 9 oz silver-trimmed plastic cups for a dinner gathering , and they turned out perfect. The silver rim gives them an upscale, classy look great for parties or more formal events like weddings. They’re sturdy and don’t feel flimsy at all, even when filled with ice and drinks. Guests complimented them several times, thinking they were real glass! Cleanup was easy since they’re disposable, but honestly, they’re durable enough to rinse and reuse if you want. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their party setup without spending a lot.

Good quality choice
Color: 9-Gold-200
Very good quality for a wedding. Used for wine with a larger size for beer. Great match and not flimsy or thin quality. Can be washed and used again as the gold band doesn't wash off easily and they still look new after one use, or toss.
