70 days — Bred by Dr. Henry M. Munger of Cornell University and released in 1976. The fruit are dark green in color and best harvested for slicing when they are eight to nine inches long. They have a sweet mild flavor and are very disease resistant (downy mildew, powdery mildew, scab, cucumber mosaic virus). Does well in cool climates.

During our 2003 growing season we had some extremely hot (100ºF) and dry weather here in Oregon. The cucumber in the picture was picked in the midst of our heat wave and was not bitter at all. It remained of excellent flavor. Each packet contains one gram, which is approximately 25 to 30 seeds.
