who do u grow cucumbers

1. 
   Rows: space plants placing one seed every 2" to 8" in rows 4' to 5' apart.
2. Hills: plant 5 to 8 seeds per hill. When plants emerge, cut off weaker plants leaving only 2 to 3 per hill. Allow 3' to 6' between hills.
3. Beds: place hills in beds following spacing for hills above.
4. Containers: Place seeds as described above for rows or hills. Use bush-type cucumbers which require less room or grow plants on cages or on trellises.
5. Grown in high temperatures with inadequate water, fruits develop a bitter flavor. Most of the bitterness is in the inch of fruit closest to the stem and near the skin. Some new varieties contain a gene that eliminates all bitterness even under stress.
