Direct Sowing vs. Starts\u003c\/b\u003e In our climate, cucumbers love warm soil. If you're direct-sowing your Cucumbers, wait until the soil is consistently warm (mid-to-late May). For a head start, you can start them indoors 3–4 weeks before the last frost, but be gentle when transplanting—cucumbers don't like their roots disturbed!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Matches Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737655378200,"sku":"MS26-F3-E4144SC26","price":3.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/6497\/1032\/files\/Cucumber_Pickling_Wisconsin_SMR_58_The_Prolific_Pickler_MatchesSeeds.png?v=1772477658","url":"https:\/\/matchesseeds.ca\/products\/cucumber-pickling-wisconsin-smr-58-matchesseeds","provider":"Matches Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
