Botanical Name
Cucumis sativus 'Poinsett 76'
Common Name
Cucumber
Family
Cucurbitaceae
Garden(s):
It has been our experience that Cucumis sativus 'Poinsett 76' performs very well in a spring to early summer planting in full sun. Fruit production was consistent and resulted in constant harvests during the lifespan of the plant, ceasing around midsummer. Daily monitoring of the plant will assist in harvesting before the cucumbers get too large and yellow.
Cucumis sativus 'Poinsett 76' was developed by Clemson University in South Carolina and Cornell University in New York.
