FAQ

Why are my cucumber seeds not germinating? 

Cucumber seeds will not germinate because of improper growing conditions like not getting enough sunlight, sowing seeds too deep in the soil, overwatering, or under-watering.

Why is my cucumber plant flowering but not producing cucumbers?

The cucumber plant does not produce fruit due to the lack of pollination; the female flowers rely on bees (or humans) to transfer pollen from the male flowers.
