Tendergreen Burpless Cucumber
Growing Tendergreen Burpless Cucumber
‘Tendergreen Burpless’ is a vigorous cucumber prized for its smooth, dark green fruits, crisp texture, and mild, refreshing flavor. Nearly seedless and bred for reduced bitterness, the 8- to 10-inch cucumbers have tender skin and an easy-to-enjoy crunch that makes them especially appealing for fresh use.
Start ‘Tendergreen Burpless’ indoors for transplanting or sow directly in the garden about ½ inch deep. Space plants 12 to 18 inches apart and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety produces high yields on vigorous vines and performs reliably throughout the warm growing season.
Ready to harvest in about 60 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.
Mild, crisp, and versatile, ‘Tendergreen Burpless’ is excellent for fresh eating, salads, slicing, snacking, and light pickling.
