When to plant cucumbers in Russia: 3 May – 29 September

Cucumber in Russia: plant out into open ground from 3 May to 29 September; the window opens earliest in Astrakhan and closes latest in Sochi (76 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.
