Know before you buy
While these vigorous vines can grow along the ground, trellising is highly recommended. Supporting the vines helps the long, slender fruit hang straight and keeps them off the soil, which reduces the risk of rot and makes harvesting easier.
Burpless refers to cucumbers that are bred to have lower levels of cucurbitacin, the compound that can cause bitterness and digestive discomfort. The Suyo Long is known for its mild, refreshing flavor and thin, tender skin that is easy to digest.
These plants are relatively fast-growing, typically reaching maturity in 60 to 70 days. You can expect to start harvesting your first cucumbers about two months after planting.
Yes, Suyo Long is specifically noted for its heat tolerance. It is well-suited for USDA zones 3 through 10, making it a reliable choice for gardeners in warmer climates where other varieties might struggle.
Yes, this is an heirloom, open-pollinated variety. This means you can save the seeds from your best-performing fruits to plant in future seasons, and they will grow true to the parent plant.
Plant the seeds at a depth of 0.5 to 1 inch in well-draining soil. Ensure they receive full sun exposure to support the vigorous growth and high yield characteristic of this variety.
