Care Guide:
Also known as the Yard-Long Cucumber, Snake Cucumber, Snake Melon or Uri, it is really a Melon, but it acts like a Cucumber! Known as one of the best slicing Cucumbers, this Armenian heirloom is rarely available for purchase so you’d best grow your own. Thin-skinned, slightly ribbed and matte chartreuse, its crisp, mild flesh has a light citric finish with a unique sweetness. Sow seeds outdoors in 12″ diameter hills after the last frost when soil is warm. Space hills 6′ apart in all directions. Can also be started indoors 2-4 weeks before the last frost for an earlier harvest. Cucumbers benefit from consistent moisture. Provide support for vines to save space.
