Whether cucumbers will produce a good harvest depends not least on where the garden bed is located.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist and landscape designer, told us where in the garden you should plant cucumbers.
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.
It is strictly forbidden to plant cucumbers in lowlands, as they will be cold there.
As for the soil, cucumbers grow best on black loamy soils.
