seeingreen's Cucumber Diamant F1 Care Instructions
If sowing directly, sow at a depth of approx. 0.47 inches (1.2 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 11.7 inches (30.0 cm) between Cucumber plants.
Cucumber 'Diamant' normally grows to a mature height of 30.0 cm (that's 11.7 inches imperial) so ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant.
Your garden has dappled sun light - a full sun position will ensure your plant thrives.
Remember to water often.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (8b) is within the ideal range for Cucumber 'Diamant'. The recommended range is between Zone 3 and 14.
Try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.5 and 6.8 as Cucumber 'Diamant' likes to be in acidic soil.
Common Cucumber problems include Aphids, Powdery Mildew, and Cucumber Mosaic Virus, so keep a close eye out for any developing symptoms.
More information about Cucumber Diamant F1 is available in the Folia gardener's wiki. All Cucumber Diamant F1 Care Instructions have been kindly provided by our members.

First time I’ve grown it – fast growing , prolific and disease free. Delicious, tender fruits raw or pickled. A hit with all the family. Definitely one for next year.
