Description
If you want to grow cucumber seeds, look no further than Cucumber Spacemaster container garden seeds from Mr. Fothergill’s. This bush vegetable seed variety forms a neat and compact plant with high yields of tasty fruit. Taking up less space than more traditional types of cucumber, it is ideal for smaller gardens and can even be grown successfully in tubs, pots, and containers. Plus, it’s tolerant of the cucumber mosaic virus, giving you a healthy crop season after season. For other seeds that grow well in small gardens, take a look at our container garden seeds. Or, for a homegrown salad garden, choose our carrot and lettuce seeds instead.

How to Sow Seeds


Method: Direct sow
Depth: 12mm
Growing notes: For a successful cucumber container garden, sow your Spacemaster cucumber seeds 12mm (1/2") deep directly into their final growing position. Plant 4-5 seeds in small clumps, thinning them later to the two strongest seedlings. Space the clumps 40-50cm (16-20in) apart, with 60cm (2ft) between rows. Prepare the soil beforehand with organic material or a complete fertiliser.
Your cucumber seedlings will emerge within 7-10 days. When the plants have five or six leaves, pinch out the growing tips to encourage side shoots for better yields. Keep your cucumber plants consistently well-watered for best results.
