Description
The Jogger F1 cucumber is a long, hardy, productive and late variety, ideal for outdoor cultivation. It offers dark green fruits, 25 cm (10in) long, with a bitter-free, crunchy and juicy flesh. Sowing from April to June, for a harvest from July to October.
Cucumbers appreciate light, loose, moist and humus-rich soils. They like sunny exposures and temperatures between 18 and 22°C. They are quite water-hungry vegetables that need regular watering. Cucumber is, along with tomato, one of the star vegetables of summer: refreshing, low in calories, it can be enjoyed in a mixed salad or on its own, with for example, a yogurt, lemon and dill sauce.
There are two main types of cucumbers: "forcing" varieties that are intended for greenhouse cultivation and those that are suitable for outdoor cultivation. They can be smooth or spiky, long or semi-long. In addition to these classic varieties, there are also more "exotic" cucumbers such as the Kenyan Cucumber or the Snake Cucumber, which are generally more heat-demanding.
Harvest: cucumbers should be harvested when they have reached their final size, before their color turns yellow. Be careful: overripe fruits become bitter. Remember to harvest regularly to encourage the formation of new fruits.
Storage: cucumbers can be stored in the refrigerator for several days. To enjoy your harvest for longer, you can also preserve them in jars through lacto-fermentation or vinegar.
Gardener's tip: like all cucurbits, cucumbers can be susceptible to powdery mildew: a white coating appears on the foliage. It is necessary to remove heavily affected leaves and spray with wettable sulfur every 2 weeks. As a preventive measure, avoid watering the foliage and ensure good ventilation in your greenhouse if cultivation takes place under cover. A spray of horsetail decoction can also be applied to strengthen foliage resistance. A spray of nettle manure effectively fights against aphid attacks.
Plant your lettuces and beans alongside, your cucumbers appreciate their companionship.

Planting and care
Cucumber Sowing:
Cucumber germination occurs at temperatures between 16°C and 35°C. Germination usually takes 8 to 10 days at these temperatures. Sowing can be done from March to June in a pot or directly in the ground:
In a pot, one month before the expected planting date, place 2 or 3 seeds in a special seed compost and water with a very fine spray. When the two true leaves appear, keep the strongest plant. Keep the young plant at a mild temperature, making sure the substrate remains moist but not waterlogged.
In the ground, sowing is done later, when the soil is well warmed up: sow in groups of 2 or 3 seeds and follow the same procedure as for sowing in a pot. When planting or sowing directly, leave a distance of 1 m (3ft) between each row and 50 to 60 cm (20 to 24in) between each plant.
Cucumber Cultivation:
Cucumber is a fairly demanding vegetable that requires rich soil. It is advisable, preferably in autumn, to add mature compost (about 3 kg per m²) by scratching the soil to a depth of 5 cm (2in), after having loosened the soil, as is the case for all vegetable crops. It thrives in neutral soils (pH 7) but will also do well in slightly acidic or alkaline soil (pH between 5.5 and 7.5).
Cucumber can be grown flat, but to save space and promote production, don't hesitate to make use of its trailing habit by training it on a trellis: on a frame covered with wire mesh, inclined at 45%, it will provide beneficial shade for lettuces or even in a teepee to add some whimsy to the vegetable garden.
When the plants are trained vertically, the cultivation is done on a single stem, which is pinched at a height of 2.5 m (8ft) maximum. When grown flat, pinch above the second leaf to obtain two stems, which will then be pinched above the 4th leaf. The final pruning involves cutting above a leaf for each formed fruit.
Cucumber pairs well with corn, salads, and beans, but avoid planting them near tomatoes and potatoes.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
