Work the soil to a depth of 30 cm, incorporating compost or well-rotted manure. Sow when the soil temperature reaches at least 18°C ​​to prevent seed rot. Form mounds 15 to 20 cm high and 30 to 60 cm in diameter, spaced approximately 120 cm apart, then sow 6 to 8 seeds per mound at a depth of 2 cm. After germination, thin to 3 or 4 plants per mound. In confined spaces, train the plants on trellises. Water regularly and evenly to prevent bitterness, and protect the plants from late frosts. Harvest the fruits by gently cutting them to avoid damaging the plants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weston","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53075851608224,"sku":"WSD-62223000010","price":3.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/files\/Cucumber-Sweet-Slice.jpg?v=1764903552","url":"https:\/\/www.pepiniere.ca\/en\/products\/w-concombre-mezzo-lungo","provider":"Pépinière.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
