50 Spacemaster 80 Cucumber Seeds – Compact, Productive Variety for Small Gardens

Spacemaster 80 is a compact cucumber variety bred for small gardens, raised beds, and containers. Its vines stay manageable while still producing crisp, dark green slicing cucumbers. This makes it a practical choice for gardeners with limited space who want a steady harvest of fresh cucumbers for salads and snacking.

The plants are bushy and vigorous, with a growth habit that suits patio pots and tight planting areas. Spacemaster 80 cucumbers are typically harvested when they are 6 to 8 inches long, before they become overmature. With consistent moisture and plenty of sun, the vines can reward you with multiple pickings throughout the season.

Planting & Care

Sow Spacemaster 80 cucumber seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date, when soil has warmed to at least 60°F. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep, spacing them 18 to 24 inches apart. For container growing, choose a pot at least 12 inches deep and wide to accommodate the root system. Keep the soil evenly moist during germination and throughout the growing season.

Provide a trellis or support if you prefer to grow the vines vertically, though the compact habit often performs well without one. Water at the base of the plant to help keep foliage dry, and mulch to conserve moisture. Harvest cucumbers regularly to encourage continued production. Avoid letting fruits become overripe, as this can reduce overall yield.
