Out doors, cucumber can be seeded in rows 3-4 feet or 
more apart and the seed dropped 3-4 inches apart, an 
inch below the surface of the ground, or the seed can be 
planted in hills about 4 feet apart and 8-10 seeds to each 
hill. A good method where the soil is not very rich, is to 
dig a trench and fill in some fresh manure and then at 
least 6 inches of soil between the manure and the seed.
