Wait until soil and air temperatures averages 70Â°F each day before sowing or transplanting cumbers to the garden. While warm temperatures are required for growing, cucumbers require a relatively short seasonâ55 to 60 days from sowing to harvest. In long-season regions, you can plant successive crops. In cool or short-season regions, choose the warmest time of the year for growing cucumbers.
You can pick the first cucumbers just 55 to 75 days after you plant the seeds. Cucumbers are subject to a number of problems, some of which cause cucumber leaves to turn yellow, and when the condition is severe enough, the plant may die. Potato leafhoppers feed on cucumber plants by sucking the sap from the leaves. As they feed, they inject a toxin that causes the leaves to turn yellow.
