Marketmore 76 Slicing is a slicer cucumber that has long fruit; green in color.
(63 days) Open-pollinated. Dr. Henry Munger’s classic cucumber for the ages, long the leading slicing variety in the Northeast, still sells nearly 5,000 packets per year for us though it is offered by just about every seed purveyor on the planet. Dark green 8–8½" fruits show good uniformity. Vines vigorous throughout the season. Tolerant to CMV, DM, PM, resistant to scab.
Seeds are Organic from Fedco and grown with OMRI Certified ProMix Soil, Gnatrol, and Fish Fertilizer for nutrients. We have a great home-grown process to grow our plants. We are not a certified organic farm.
Plants will be available as 2.5" Pot. Plant Spacing recommendation is some say 4-12" apart if trellised, or 3 per hill 5-6' . Plant outside after last frost when night time lows are at LEAST 50*F consistently otherwise plant will likely be stunted or perish.
