Cucumber 'Petipikel'

Cucumis sativus 'Petipikel'

Petipikel is a short vining/bush pickling cucumber. Petipikel has been bred to stay compact with the vines using only 1/3 of the space of a standard variety. Plants mature in just 45 days. Pick the green striped, spined fruit at 8 – 13cm for the best results. Harvest regularly to increase the yield. Best used for pickling, but fruit can be left until 15cm long and used fresh.
