Last year I planted 7 cucumber bushes, which were able to feed our entire family.
How can a few cucumber bushes provide you with enough vegetables?
Cucumbers are one of the most common vegetables that are suitable for growing even for beginner gardeners. Personally, when we just bought a dacha, I started my gardening precisely with the cultivation of these vegetables.
Why do many people prefer to grow cucumbers in their own gardens, and do not buy them in the market or in the store? Everything is very simple. When you try fresh cucumbers from your garden beds, you will no longer want to eat store-bought vegetables.
To make your cucumber growing experience successful, I can share my experience.
It is very important to choose the right variety of cucumbers so that you do not have to occupy large areas for this vegetable crop in order to provide the family with a sufficient amount of vegetables.
Previously, I had to sow several packs of seeds so that there were enough cucumbers for food and for pickling for the winter. But one day a neighbor advised me a variety of cucumbers "Siberian garland".
I bought one pack to try. It contained only 10 seeds. When the cucumbers sprouted, I realized that three seeds were empty and did not germinate.
At first, I was very upset that this year I would be left without my favorite vegetables. There was no opportunity to buy additional seeds and still photograph the garden bed.
It so happened that this year I almost did not have time to regularly come to the garden. As a result, I did not water the cucumbers as often as I would like.
But the result exceeded my expectations: the cucumbers grew beautiful and did not hurt at all. For some reason, pests did not like this variety of cucumbers.
And just from seven bushes, we were able to fully satisfy all our needs. We had enough harvest not only for food, but also for pickling and salting.
I advise everyone to try this variety. He is not whimsical and not prone to diseases and infections, and the number of cucumbers from just one bush is pleasantly surprising.
