Growing Information

Growing English Sweet Long Slim Hybrid Cucumber

‘English Sweet Long Slim’ is a premium hybrid cucumber prized for its exceptionally sweet flavor, crisp texture, and long, slender fruits. An improved version of ‘English Long Sweet Crunch,’ this variety matures earlier while delivering the same elegant shape with even sweeter flavor. The smooth fruits are completely burpless, virtually seedless, and bitter-free, making them especially enjoyable for fresh eating.

Start ‘English Sweet Long Slim’ indoors about ¼ inch deep for transplanting. Space plants 12 to 16 inches apart and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety benefits from trellising, which helps the fruits grow straighter and keeps them easier to harvest.

Ready to harvest in about 65 days, begin picking the fruits once they reach a usable size while they are still firm, crisp, and tender. Harvest regularly to encourage continued production and maintain the best texture and flavor.

Sweet, crisp, and refreshing, ‘English Sweet Long Slim’ is excellent for fresh eating, slicing, salads, sandwiches, and snacking.

Five seeds got two to grow.

The seed's are not worth buying. Only two seeds grew. The output of cucumbers was not good at all

Great cucumber

The only reason I gave this cucumber 4 stars is because only 1 of the five seeds I planted germinated. However, that one seed produced an abundance of great tasting cucs. Some of the best in my garden this year. I will plant again.

English sweet long cucumbers

This is my third year of the English wee long cucumber. I love them! I use them to make bread and butter pickles. Friends are always asking for jars of them! Hard to keep some on hand. Thank you Seeds 'N Such!

Not good for me

I planted 15 seeds around the 3rd week of May. Only two germinated and one of those died after 3 days. I purchased more cucumber seeds from Burpee and planted them in the same spot and all germinated and are doing very well.
I've had excellent success with Seeds 'N Such in the past, but not this year!?!
