It would seem that in growing cucumbers is not complex. And this is true, but only if you approach it with a certain amount of knowledge. Including the ones that are best suited for growing in your area.

— Where you intend to grow cucumbers in a hothouse, a greenhouse, outdoors or on the windowsill?
— When you want to harvest: in early June, July or August?
— How long you want to harvest cucumbers?
Thus, the early varieties of cucumbers are more susceptible to disease, and the period of fructification, in comparison with the later, much shorter. And, despite the fact that the division of cucumbers in early, middle and late very loosely, from answers to these 3 questions, for obvious reasons, and will depend on the choice of varieties.

Naturally, each of the varieties has its benefits, but to choose the best everyone has for himself depending on his needs and desires.
