Cucumber Varieties

Cucumbers come in vine and bush varieties, including various hybrid species like Burpless and Bush pickle. For vining cucumbers, these plants will need some kind of stake or trellis behind for the vines to catch on, while Bush cucumbers can be grown in hill formations. Both types have their benefits, as bush cucumbers take up less space and vining stay off the ground. All varieties need plenty of water, full sun, and mulch and using liquid fertilizer is recommended.
