cucumber varieties

Question

Are there any varieties that produce just a few at a time? My cucumbers produced dozens of little fruits that did not get bigger until all grew bigger at once, so I had 15 at once. This is good for commercial production, but not the home gardener.

Thank you.

Answer 1

I actually spent quite a bit of time looking for a variety that does just what you mention in your question.
Most varieties that I researched, actually brag of large production!
I would look for a smaller cucumber variety; this may make more sense then larger fruit varieties for you.

Proper storage will also help you hold the fruit. Pick Cucumbers in the am; wash, dry and place in a bag in a crisper drawer in the fridge. They should store for a week.
