Elevate your garden with non-GMO heirloom Japanese Long Cucumber seeds from Sow Right Seeds. Known for their exceptionally crisp texture, slender growth, and sweet, mild flavor, these burpless cucumbers offer a delicious crunch without being heavy or harsh on the stomach. Perfect for Asian dishes, fresh salads, and homemade pickles, this versatile heirloom brings superior flavor to your kitchen creations. Whether trained up a trellis in a compact space or grown in a full backyard bed, these productive plants deliver a bountiful harvest for both beginners and experienced gardeners alike.

Direct sow outdoors after all danger of frost has passed, or start seeds indoors 3–4 weeks prior to the last spring frost. Plant seeds 1” deep in well-draining soil and space plants 12” apart. Choose a location with full sunlight for maximum yield. Japanese Long Cucumbers benefit greatly from vertical trellising, which keeps the long fruit growing straight, clean, and easy to harvest. Keep soil consistently moist throughout the growing season and harvest fruit when young and slender for peak flavor and crispness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Burpless cucumbers contain lower concentrations of cucurbitacin, the natural compound responsible for bitterness in cucumbers that can cause mild digestive upset or bloating. Varieties like the Japanese Long are naturally sweeter, milder, and easier to digest.

Growing Japanese Long Cucumbers on a vertical trellis allows gravity to pull the cucumbers downward, helping them grow straight, slender, and uniform. Trellising also improves air circulation, minimizes disease risk, saves garden space, and keeps fruit clean off the ground.

No, Japanese Long Cucumbers have very thin, delicate skins with soft, small spines that can easily be rubbed off. Because the skin lacks the bitterness found in thicker-skinned slicers, they do not require peeling.

Harvest cucumbers when they are roughly 10 to 18 inches long and still firm. Picking fruit regularly encourages the plant to continue producing new blossoms and cucumbers continuously throughout the growing season.
