Planting & Growing
Armenian Cucumber will grow to be about 2-3 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 4-6 feet. When planted in rows, space individual plants about 12 inches apart. This vegetable plant is an annual, meaning it will grow for one season and then die after producing a crop.
This plant thrives in full sunlight and prefers well-drained, evenly moist soil. It grows best in rich, fertile soils with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Armenian Cucumbers do not tolerate standing water, so avoid overly wet conditions. It's best to avoid planting in areas with heavy urban pollution or near high-traffic zones for healthy growth.
Armenian Cucumber is well-suited for vegetable gardens, but it can also thrive in large containers or pots. When grown in containers, ensure consistent moisture and use a rich potting mix. It benefits from regular watering, especially during dry periods.
