Beit Alpha

A delicious, very sweet cucumber that is usually picked small and does not need peeling, as the skin is very tender. This variety is very popular in the Mediterranean, having been developed in Israel at a kibbutz farm, and it is now becoming popular with Americans because of the fruit’s fine flavor and high yields. This cuke is also burpless and has great shelf life. A parthenocarpic variety, you can grow in a greenhouse without pollinators.

Growing Tips

Seed indoors 2-3 weeks before and transplant into warm soil (above 60 degrees at night). Space the plants 12" apart. Vines grow 4-5', so allow them space to sprawl.
