"The Ferry-Morse Cucumber Sumter Organic Seeds have been fast growing. I first placed them between a wet paper towel in a closed container. They were growing within a week, at which point I potted them. A week later most of them were still growing well. I'm hopeful I'll be able to plant them in the ground or a larger pot in 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to some delicious cucumber sandwiches."
"These seeds are a really great option if you plan on growing your own cucumbers! They are very well stored and packaged and none of them looked disappointing to say the least. I will say that out of the 4 I planted, only 2 grew so you have about 50/50 odds. BUT you do get a good amount of seeds so that if some don't work out you can just plant another. The directions are very easy to read and has good tips for growing, they're labeled organic which is nice and so far I haven't had any pest issues but that can always become an issue as they continue to grow."
"I haven't planted my Ferry Morse Organic Sumter Cucumber seeds yet since it's still a bit early in the season, but I'm already impressed. The packaging includes so much helpful information, especially the 'planting information' and the 'when to start planting' visual, which makes beginning a garden feel more doable. With such clear and detailed instructions, it feels like you can't do it wrong. There were about 50 seeds in the packet."
"I'm super excited for these hopefully the appearance of them are as they look on the packaging and hopefully they grow as they should and we'll see about the resilience and the maturity of them once they start to grow a little bit the germination process was easy and I'm excited to grow these."
"This package has 50 seeds and will make plenty of cucumbers for the family with extras to gift to neighbors and friends. These will make the perfect size cucumbers for any summer dish you make. The seeds stored easily until time to plant with easy to follow instructions. I started mine out in a seedling container and I will transfer them to the garden after they are a larger size plant. ."
"I am very impressed because after a few days these seeds were already sprouting! I always use this brand and they are relatively hardy even in my windy growing conditions."
"My cucumber seeds started to grow super fast and they love the sun! Great brand of seed and I can't wait to buy different varieties for my garden from this brand!"
"Lots of seeds and super easy to plant! I love how easy it is! I'm excited to have these cucumbers grow in my garden! Very easy to plant and I love how they are organic!"
"I am super happy that I got these, I'm ready to start my garden and plant lots of yummy veggies and fruits. Never tried this brand of sends before so hopefully it's good."
"Love them taste great! Going to do some dill pickles soon!"
