Cucumber (Gherkin) Charlotte H

Latin name: Cucumis sativus L.

Charlotte H is a delightful early-harvest gherkin variety, perfect for gardeners eager to enjoy fresh cucumbers in no time. This hybrid is known for its high yield, producing multiple fruits per node – typically 3 to 4 small, non-bitter cucumbers with a smooth, glossy skin.

Ideal for both outdoor and greenhouse cultivation, these cucumbers are not just tasty when fresh; they can also be canned or pickled, making them a versatile addition to your garden. Resistant to common diseases such as Cucumber Mosaic Virus and Cladosporium, this variety ensures a healthy yield.

To get the best results, consider the following tips:

• Plant in well-drained soil with plenty of sunlight.
• Water regularly, especially during dry spells.
• Support the plants with trellises if desired, to enhance air circulation and ease harvesting.

Harvesting typically occurs from June to September, allowing for an extended season of enjoyment!
