This special re-print edition of John Weeden's book "A Practical Treatise on the Growth of Cucumbers" covers the basics of how to grow cucumbers. Written in England in 1832 by a serious enthusiast of cucumber growing with over twenty five years of experience, this classic work on vegetable gardening provides insights into growing cucumbers in cool climates during all seasons. Mr. Weeden was so successful growing Cucumbers that he took many prizes for them at early vegetable exhibitions and states that using his methods, a person could even produce fruit during the cold January months utilizing hot houses or cold frames.
