Introducing… Our absolute favorite cucumber of all time! The Suyo Long is an epic cucumber in so many ways–first of all, it’s epically long! Long and thin, with a ridged skin, it makes for a crunchy and super sweet pickle or for fresh eating. If left to grow on the vine too long, length and size can amaze–without the bitterness or toughness of many other cucumber varieties. 🌱
The plant is super hardy, and generally doesn’t have issues with pests. In fact, check out this testament to hardiness–last year we had a Suyo plant that was planted far from the usual garden space. It was trampled by cows and we forgot all about it. Later in the season it yielded a half-dozen huge and sweet cucumbers! Woo hoo! 🥒
As you can see, we cannot sing the praises of this cucumber enough! Grab your Southern Exposure seeds this Saturday at the Corner Farmers Market! 🛒
