50-55 days. Whether you are tight for space or just want a terrific container cuke, this one’s for you. In our field trials, Patio Snacker stayed within a 24–36 inch radius, yet still produced harvests rivaling its larger neighbors. The healthy, vigorous plants yield white-spined, dark green-skinned fruit that are ideal for picking at under 2 inches wide and 6 ½–7 inches long. They are crunchy, flavorful and bitter-free. Keep picking and you’ll have continuous harvests all season long. MO and PAT.
