Stonewall Cucumber

$499

Stonewall Cucumber is a hybrid, slicing cucumber variety that’s known for its beautiful size, color and consistency. Stonewall Cucumber has consistently performed well in trials over the years, and is a favorite among home gardeners and market farmers for appearance and yields. Fruits have a dark green coloration and are very straight, usually averaging 8″-9″ in length. This variety produces a very high ratio of #1 fruit and holds well in the field without producing oversized fruit.  Stonewall is one of the most disease-resistant varieties of slicing cucumber you’ll find, including resistance to powdery mildew and cucumber mosaic virus. This is a great variety for fresh slicing into salads and other cold raw dishes. Cucumis sativus.

Description

Be sure to check out our Cucumber Growing Guide to learn more about how you can successfully grow cucumbers at home.

Stonewall Cucumber is a gynoecious variety, meaning it produces only female flowers. Because the fruits originate from the female flowers, the yield is very high. Each packet of Seeds contains 10-20% Seeds of a pollinator variety that is similar in shape and size to Stonewall. The pollinator is an open-pollinated variety that provides the male flowers needed for pollination. As a result, we recommend planting the entire seed packet to ensure the male flowers are present for pollination.

Cucumbers perform best when direct seeded. They do not perform well when transplanted. Cucumbers may be direct-seeded by hand or with a walk-behind seeder. To obtain a good stand of plants, we suggest planting Seeds every 6-8" inches and thinning to one seed per foot. Cucumbers are a vining plant and grow best when provided a trellised structure to climb. Use a strong trellis that is well-supported with deeply driven stakes. Keeping plants off the ground will reduce the potential of plant diseases like mildews and other diseases that can result from excess plant moisture. Trellising will also keep the fruits cleaner and save time with harvest and processing, in addition to reducing fruit discoloration or yellowing from sitting on the soil surface.

Second year growing them and reordered for next year. Hail finished them off this year yet not before we got a very generous bounty. Making believers out of neighbors I know that.
