Whether cucumbers will produce a good harvest depends not least on where the garden bed is located.

Where to plant cucumbers

It is often recommended to place a cucumber bed on a southern slope, but this is only relevant for northern regions.

In the southern region, cucumbers planted on a sunny slope can burn.

Choose a flat area, protected from the wind. It is also desirable that the bed be protected from excessive sun by trees.
