In the photo you can see how the seeds of cucumbers of the “Finger” variety look like. They are no different from other hybrids. The shape is slightly convex, all the material is almost the same in size, but there is a little smaller and narrower. It does not mean, that they are bad. The seeds are laid out in the ground in a special way: with the nose up. It is advisable to prepare in advance a hole and a flat plate for seeds. The seed is placed in the hole not vertically, but at an angle of 45C. From a spout that has hatched, the sprout will appear at an angle, it will be easier for it to cling to the ground, convenience is created with this method for the roots. They will be freed from the shell and go deep into the soil and horizontally to the top layer. If cucumber seeds are laid in a lying hole, the sprout will have to bend to reach the light. It is even more difficult to germinate if the spout is facing down. The strength of the bushes and the rate of ripening of cucumbers depends on how much effort the seed spends on germination. Having spent all the strength to germinate outward, the sprout will be weak and sick. It is not worth immersing the seeds deeper than the recommended one – no more than 2-4 cm. After planting, some gardeners cover the ridge with newspapers in several layers. Watering is carried out directly on the newspapers. This technology allows you to keep warm and moisture. Part of the newspaper will disintegrate, it will be left in the ground, and the denser pieces are simply removed into the manure, when they disintegrate, they will add trace elements to the soil.
