Special Groups: Kitchen Minisโ„ข
Special Groups: Hydroponics
Genetic Classification: Hybrid
Planting Instructions: Cucumbers grow best with long, hot, humid days with maximum sunshine and warm nights. Plants are extremely susceptible to frost. Sow seeds outside only after danger of frost when soil has warmed. Make a second sowing 4 to 5 weeks later for a late summer or early fall harvest. For an earlier harvest and to reduce the threat of insect damage to seedlings, start a few plants indoors in individual pots (or trays with separate compartments) about a month before your last spring frost date.

Sowing: To seed in rows, plant seeds 1 inch deep and about 6 inches apart. To plant in hills, plant four or five seeds in 1-foot-diameter circles set 5 to 6 feet apart.

By H Kastl (FORT MYERS, FL) on October 30, 2026

The Quick Snack F1 Cucumber can be grown in a sunny window or in a Greenstalk tower system. It has a bush habit rather than typical vining types and produces mini cucumbers sooner than most. The cucumbers are usually about 3 inches or so, with a lovely flavor and crunch. They are mini, but in this part of Florida where regular cucumbers struggle (mostly with disease and pests), these are much more of a sure bet.

A fast growing cucumber that thrives indoors. Just two of these took over half a Tower Garden support. They tried to climb the curtains and anything else nearby. We got dozens of tasty, crunchy cucumbers.

Excellent for my Greenstalk! Got more cucumbers off this plant than I did from my large cucumbers in my garden beds. Will be growing again! Perfect cute little cucumbers for snacking. Even the dogs loved them and kept stealing them off the vines!

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜… Tasty and cute.

Produced cucumbers earlier than the larger types. Easy to grow and they are so cute in pots. Each plant produced a good amount and the cucumbers if left to swell can be sizeable for a little cuc. They are delicious and super crunchy. They go quick!

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜† Cute and Tasty
By Caleb H (Los Angeles, CA) on August 8, 2026

These looked fun and I thought they would do well in a Greenstalk vertical planter. They were fun to grow, but not nearly as productive as I hoped. My plants were not nearly as picturesque as the photo above, but it looks like others have had more success based on other customer photos. I ended up with an 8" vine that produced 3 small cucumbers. Growth and production was very slow. By comparison, my Persian cucumbers pushed out 6-8 cukes in the same time.

The fruits were about 3" long, juicy, crisp, and great tasting. I just wish I had more of them to enjoy!

I will continue to experiment with growing these in different settings to see if I can get better results in the future. Definitely worth trying, especially if you are gardening in a small space or if you'd like to try to grow indoors during poor weather. They may benefit from some heavier nitrogen early on to promote bushier growth.

I was pleasantly surprised by how good these are. Even this small is better than store bought. Looking forward to growing these indoors this winter.

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜… I've got so many baby cucumbers growing!!!!
By Jackie Greig (Los Angeles) on December 28, 2024

I'm growing these cucumbers hydroponically in a countertop system and I couldn't be happier with them. This is my second try. The first time, I bought different cucumber seeds from a different company that needed to be hand pollinated. I only got a couple of female flowers that never took off. This time, I have numerous baby pickles growing.

I'm buying more today so I can have a steady stream of cucumbers to pickle.
