Greenly Garden

When to plant cucumbers in Kyrgyzstan: 6 May – 23 August

Cucumber in Kyrgyzstan: plant out into open ground from 6 May to 23 August; the window opens earliest in Osh and closes latest in Jalal-Abad (4 cities).

Each window starts on the Greenly calendar date and ends on the last day that still leaves the crop’s days to harvest (from its card) before the average first autumn frost, plus six weeks of picking for crops harvested over weeks (tomatoes, peppers, aubergines, cucumbers, courgettes, pumpkins, watermelons, beans) — our rule; earlier in the window is safer.
