60 days — These dwarf plants produce heavily and are resistant to cucumber mosaic virus, scab, and moderately resistant to downy and powdery mildews.
The eight inch fruit are good flavored and not bitter, even when grown in full sun. Bred by Dr. Henry M. Munger of Cornell University and released in 1980. Each packet contains one gram, which is approximately 25 to 30 seeds.
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.

I have been planting in 100+ degree weather and sprouting in direct sun. They're nice and strong and rigorous!
