Greenly Garden

When to plant cucumbers in Uruguay: 21 September – 11 April

Cucumber in Uruguay: plant out into open ground from 21 September to 11 April.

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.
