Ashley Slicer Cucumber

This excellent slicing variety is a vigorous heirloom cucumber that is resistant to downy mildew and thrives in hot, humid conditions. It features medium-length vines and matures early, producing a high yield of delicious, tapered cucumbers that range from 7 to 9 inches in length and have a dark green color. Cucumbers grow best in environments with long, hot days, plenty of sunshine, and warm nights. However, the plants are highly susceptible to frost, so it's essential to sow seeds outdoors only after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up.
