Sweeter and milder than standard cucumbers, it is burpless, non-acidic, and easy to digest, making it one of the most popular and widely enjoyed cucumbers in the world. The skin is tender enough to eat without peeling, making it as convenient as it is delicious fresh in salads, as a snack, or sliced alongside dips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVigorous and heavy cropping, Lebanese Cucumber thrives in full sun with fertile, moist, well-drained soil and consistent watering. Best grown on a trellis for straight, clean fruit and good airflow. Pick regularly at 14–18 cm to keep plants productive and prevent fruit from becoming seedy and bitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring, Summer\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSow:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indoors in seed mix, transplant after frost risk passes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50–60 cm apart with trellis support\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Climbing vine to 1.5–1.8 m with support\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGermination:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7–14 days at 21°C\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e 55 days; pick at 14–18 cm for best flavour and texture\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlavour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet, mild, and crisp; burpless and non-acidic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e20 seeds\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rasmussen Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58370359296303,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/4098\/4879\/files\/Cucumber_-_Lebanese_20_seeds.png?v=1787714956","url":"https:\/\/rasmussengardens.co.nz\/products\/cucumber-lebanese-20-seeds","provider":"Rasmussen Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
