Product Information Chevron Down Chevron Forward

Our Slicer Cucumber seeds produce heavy, early crops of long slicing cucumbers that are resistant to Downey Mildew diseases.

This cucumber can be pickled for dills when the fruits are young. This variety was developed by Cornell University to be resistant to Downey Mildew.

Sow Easy seeds are pelleted with an all-natural coating made from a mix of clay, perlite, and FDA-approved food coloring. This coating adds some bulk to small seeds and stands out in the soil, making direct sowing and accurate spacing easier than ever. However, the coating does add a few days to the germination time when compared to uncoated seed.
