History: The Russian Brown Cucumber is a unique heirloom variety originating from Russia. Known for its unusual brown skin, this variety has been appreciated for generations in Eastern European gardens. It has gained popularity worldwide for its distinctive appearance and robust growth.

Uses: Russian Brown Cucumbers are valued for their mild, crisp flesh, making them an excellent choice for fresh salads, sandwiches, and garnishes. They can also be pickled for a traditional Eastern European culinary experience. Their intriguing brown skin adds a novel aesthetic to any dish.

Growing Habits & Planting Instructions: These cucumbers grow on vigorous vines and are best supported by trellising for optimal growth and fruit quality. They thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, preferring warm conditions with consistent moisture. Sow the seeds about 1 inch deep in the soil, spacing them 18-24 inches apart to allow ample room for growth. Regular watering and occasional feeding with a balanced fertilizer will promote healthy, productive plants. Harvest the cucumbers when they reach a size of 6-8 inches for best flavor and texture.
