Summer Dance Hybrid Burpless Cucumber
Growing Summer Dance Hybrid Burpless Cucumber
‘Summer Dance’ is a premium hybrid Japanese cucumber prized for its extra-long, slender fruits, crisp texture, and sweet, mild flavor. Smooth, dark green cucumbers are thin-skinned, spine-free, and burpless, with tender skin that needs no peeling. Heavy yields and strong disease resistance make this variety a dependable choice for warm-season gardens.
Sow ‘Summer Dance’ directly in the garden about ½ inch deep. Space plants about 12 inches apart and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety is also noted for good disease resistance and performs especially well in warm growing conditions.
Ready to harvest in about 70 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, ‘Summer Dance’ is excellent for fresh eating, slicing, salads, sandwiches, and snacking.
