Cool Customer Cucumber: Crunchy Perfection for Pickling and Snacking

Discover the versatile Cool Customer cucumber, a standout variety bred by Dr. John Navazio of Johnny’s Selected Seeds. Ready to harvest in just 55-60 days, this exceptional pickling cucumber offers blocky 4-5″ fruits with a small seed cavity, delivering unparalleled crunch and flavor. Known for its resilience and productivity, Cool Customer thrives in organic growing conditions and maintains its quality throughout the season.

Cool Customer cucumbers excel in pickling, fresh snacking, and slicing applications. Their thin, smooth skin and minimal seeds enhance eating quality, while the uniform, attractive fruits maintain their appealing white spines without yellowing. These cucumbers offer an extended harvest period, producing later into the canning season compared to other varieties. Their exceptional disease resistance and ability to withstand late-season stresses make them a reliable choice for both home gardeners and market growers.

These vigorous plants produce an abundance of fruits over a long harvest period. When allowed to sprawl, space plants 3-4 feet apart, or opt for vertical growth by trellising and spacing 1 foot apart. Cool Customer’s robust vines continue to yield high-quality cucumbers even as the season progresses, ensuring a bountiful harvest from midsummer through fall.

Growing Success Tips:

• Start seeds indoors 3-4 weeks before the last frost date to prevent transplant stress
• Plant seeds 1 inch deep and keep soil consistently moist until germination
• Provide regular, generous watering after blossoms appear for optimal yield and flavor
• Harvest frequently to encourage continued production

Cool Customer cucumbers offer the perfect balance of productivity, flavor, and versatility, making them an excellent addition to any garden. Whether you’re an experienced pickler or a casual home cook, these cucumbers will elevate your culinary creations and provide a reliable harvest throughout the growing season.

For straighter cucumbers and improved production, consider trellising your Cool Customer vines.
