Planting Process of Cucumber seed

Sow cucumbers from mid-spring into small pots of seed starting or general-purpose potting mix.
Sow two seeds about an inch (3cm) deep, then water well.
Cucumbers need temperatures of at least 68ºF (20ºC) to germinate, so either place pots in a propagator for speedier germination, or simply wait until late spring to get started.
Cucumber seed prefers rich, fertile soil, so dig in plenty of well-rotted organic matter such as compost before planting.
If you’re growing your cucumbers upwards using supports such as trellis, set plants at about 18 inches (45cm) apart.
If you’ll be leaving them to sprawl over the soil surface instead, plant them about three feet (90cm) apart.
Once the seedlings appear, remove the weakest to leave one per pot
