History: The Wisconsin SMR (Saladmore Resistant) Pickling cucumber, developed at the University of Wisconsin, is a classic pickling cucumber variety. It gained popularity due to its disease resistance and perfect size and texture for pickling, marking a significant advancement in cucumber breeding.

Uses: This variety is specifically bred for pickling, with its small to medium-sized fruits that are crisp and flavorful, perfect for making dill pickles and bread-and-butter pickles. They can also be eaten fresh in salads or as a crunchy snack.

Growth Habit & Planting Instructions: Wisconsin SMR cucumbers are vining plants that benefit from support like trellises for optimal growth. They perform best in full sun and require warm conditions to thrive. Plant the seeds in well-drained soil, ensuring sufficient space for their sprawling growth habit. Regular watering, especially during fruiting, is key to producing juicy cucumbers. Harvest when cucumbers are the desired size for pickling, typically when they are 3-5 inches long, to ensure they retain their crunchy texture.
