Suyo Long Cucumber Seeds – 20 Burpless Heirloom Seeds for Planting

Suyo Long Cucumber is a distinctive Asian heirloom variety prized for its exceptionally long, slender fruits and sweet, crisp flesh. Unlike many cucumbers, it is burpless and easy to digest, making it a favorite for fresh eating. The vigorous vines produce abundant yields of dark green, slightly ribbed cucumbers that can grow up to 18 inches long when mature. Their mild, refreshing flavor and tender skin make them perfect for salads, snacking, and pickling when harvested small.

This variety is well-suited for home gardens, raised beds, and trellises. With proper care, Suyo Long Cucumber rewards growers with a steady supply of high-quality fruits throughout the season.

Planting & Care

Sow Suyo Long Cucumber seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date, when soil temperature has warmed to at least 70°F (21°C). Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 6 inches apart in rows spaced 36-48 inches apart, or plant in hills with 3-4 seeds per hill. For earlier harvests, start seeds indoors 3-4 weeks before the last frost and transplant carefully, as cucumbers dislike root disturbance.

Provide consistent moisture, especially during flowering and fruiting. Mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Trellising is recommended to keep fruits straight and clean, and to save garden space. Harvest cucumbers regularly when they reach desired size—typically 8-12 inches for slicing—to encourage continued production. Monitor for common pests and diseases, and practice crop rotation to maintain plant health.
