Chicago Pickling
Cucumber Starter Plant
Originally bred for the markets of the Chicago area and released in 1888, this has been the go-to pickling cuke for generations of home gardeners and canners and we are so pleased to offer it! The thin skins accept pickling solutions readily. Black-spined fruit can be allowed to reach 7 inches without sacrificing quality but is often harvested much smaller. Amazingly prolific, and disease resistant, too.
Care Instructions:
- Space 18-36" apart
- 55 days to maturity
No two plants are alike, and yours will have its own unique shape, size and personality; starter plants are potted in at least 2" x 2" nursery pot and typically are not in bloom. All starters are healthy and viable.
Plants are only available for local delivery within Windsor-Essex County. Please select this option at check out, or contact us for specific inquiries.
