• Transplanting: Transplant seedlings outdoors when they have at least two sets of true leaves and after all danger of frost has passed. Space plants 12-18 inches apart in rows 3-4 feet apart.
• Soil: Brown Russian Cucumbers prefer rich, well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8. Incorporate compost or aged manure into the soil for optimal growth.
• Sunlight: Ensure full sun exposure, providing at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day to promote vigorous growth and high yields.
• Watering: Water consistently to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Support: Use trellises or cages to support the vines and keep the fruits off the ground, reducing the risk of rot and disease.

Harvesting Tips:

• When to Harvest: Harvest Brown Russian Cucumbers when they reach 6-8 inches in length and have a uniform brown color. They are typically ready 50-60 days after planting.
