"Great product! These cucumber seeds didn't take too long to germinate. Since they have sprouted, they've been steadily growing consistently and are showing great signs. I plan to transplant these to my garden and can't wait to see how they flourish!"
"Great seeds. Good product good price. Doesn't need to much time to plant. Can't wait to watch them grow! Definitely will be purchasing Ferry-Morse for my garden."
"Love that these are organic seeds! The packaging shows clear image of the cucumbers and the instructions on the back is simple/easy to understand. I'm looking forward to harvesting in a few months!"
"These organic seeds were healthy looking in the packet. I like that they are an heirloom variety and not GMO. Instructions are easy to follow. I planted using a seed starter mix and trays, and put in full sun in March as per the instructions. It's so much fun watching and waiting for the first tiny sprouts. When they are large enough, it will be easy to transplant into garden soil."
"I love these seedling packs! I cannot wait to plant them and watch them grow! I love that they are organic and look delicious! Lots of seeds and easy to plant!"
"Every year I plant cucumber seeds or plants. If I can keep the bugs off them I should be good to go and have plenty cucumbers this summer. Hopefully, the weather figures itself out soon."
"So far, packaging is eye catching and would easily stand out in a shelf. Number of seeds is nice. Instructions are easy to follow. Look forward to seeing what will come as they continue to grow."
"Simply the best cucumber I’ve ever grown. Very prolific disease resistant and delicious. They also are heat tolerant. Very important for middle Tennessee where the summers are very hot and humid."
"The description says vigorous vines. I'll say they are. I planted 2 back in April, and I am new at cucumbers but as far as I can tell, they both got squash vine borers in the stem. They somehow grew out around the stem damage, and continued to form good strong vines though they lost some leaves. The first definite damage was over 6 weeks ago, so I'm hoping the borers have left the vine now. They are still growing and flowering. I have only got 3 cucumbers off of them so far, but with this much damage I'm just happy they are still growing, and I admire the way they worked around the problem. Since this is my first experience with cucumbers, I'll try not to let that happen again, but since they are still alive and growing I must say this is a very good cucumber."
"Our plants have grown well but the fruit has been very bitter. Are we picking at the wrong time? We have picked when they are between 7-9 inches in length."
