1. Spring: spring is the best time for sowing. In early spring, the temperature is gradually stable, and the outdoor environment has thawed and thawed ice. It is a good time for sowing, which is conducive to the early emergence and growth of cucumber seeds, and improve the germination rate. However, sowing in spring, in order to avoid the cold of late spring and prevent damage to the plant, you can cover a layer of plastic film on it, which can play a role of heat preservation and moisture preservation, and promote plant growth.
2. Autumn: cucumbers can also be planted at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. In the southern area where there is no ice frost, the planting time can be advanced, and it will mature and come into market in about autumn. Generally 70 days before the frost comes, i.e. June to August. However, there are many disadvantages in this period of time. It is easy to have serious diseases and insect pests, and the yield is relatively low.
Prepare the right seeds in advance to ensure good quality, which is more suitable if the yield is high. It can't be seeded directly. It needs to be soaked and sprouted. Select the seeds, soak them in hot water for 30 minutes, wash them and put them into water. After pulling out, put it in a warm place, and observe that seeds can be sown when they are white.
