Green Light Hybrid Cucumber
Growing Green Light Hybrid Cucumber
‘Green Light’ is an award-winning hybrid cucumber and 2020 All-America Selections Winner prized for its exceptional productivity, sweet flavor, and crisp texture. Vigorous plants can produce up to 40 smooth, spineless, nearly seedless mini cucumbers, each measuring about 4 to 5 inches long. The thin skin is tender enough to enjoy without peeling, making this variety especially convenient for fresh eating.
Start ‘Green Light’ indoors for transplanting or sow directly in the garden about ½ inch deep. Space plants about 12 inches apart and grow in full sun. This variety is especially well suited to containers, raised beds, and smaller gardens, and performs best when grown on a stake, trellis, or other vertical support.
Ready to harvest in about 40 days, begin picking the fruits once they reach 4 to 5 inches long while they are still firm, crisp, and tender. Harvest regularly to encourage continued production and maintain the best texture and flavor.
Sweet, crunchy, and refreshing, ‘Green Light’ is excellent for fresh eating, slicing, salads, and snacking.
