RIDGE CUCUMBER. 
Cultural Notes.—Ridge Cucumbers may be grown on hillocks or on beds, and in either case a foundation of fermenting material should be 
provided. About mid-April sow the seeds in three-inch pots or in boxes and place in a cool greenhouse. After careful hardening, plant out about the 
third week of May. If preferred, seeds may be sown on the bed early in May. The final spacing of the plants should be about thirty inches apart in 
rows four feet apart. Cover the young plants with a flower pot at night should the weather prove unfavourable. The tips of the shoots should 
be pinched out once only—when five or six leaves have developed.
