Today I am going to tell you how to plant and grow bush cucumbers in your garden. The best time to begin planting cucumbers in your garden is either in April or May, or after the last frost. You should do this because cucumbers are really sensitive to cold weather. Once you figure out when to begin planting, you should find the perfect location to plant. Cucumbers grow best in full sunlight. So find a sunny location in your garden to plant them.

Before you plant your cucumbers, dig out any weeds around the area. It is important to do this because the weeds will take away nutrients that the cucumbers need to grow. Once all the weeds are pulled, it is time to begin planting. It is best to plant directly from seeds because cucumbers have fragile roots. When planting, push up to two seeds 1/2 to 1 inch into the soil. If you are planting multiple plants, make sure that you plant them 20 to 35 inches apart. Since cucumbers need a lot of moisture to grow, water them once a week with at least 1 inch of water. Whenever
the cucumbers get to be 5 to 8 inches in length is can be harvested. To harvest them you can either twist them off  or cut them off the vine.
