Square Foot Gardening

Cucumber Spacing/Pattern

20 years ago

In the past I have grown cucumbers in with my corn just letting it climb among the stalks. Last year I planted some in a row across the north side and trellised them. I have 6-8 Straight Eight cucumbers given to me today. Not having anything else ready to go in the ground, I am trying to think of ways to plant them since they are ready to go in the ground.

Has anyone experimented with any cucumber spacing or patterns they thought worked pretty well?

Thanks,

I would be interested in what folks are using for bush cuke spacing as well. I'm trying two per square this year in a zigzag pattern with bush crop and spacemaster. The bush crop spacing is getting a little tight.

My experience with the Bushmaster has been it is not a bush at all...just a shorter vine.
