These are Monoecious: The most common type of cucumber, monoecious varieties have both male and female flowers on the same plant. The first 10 to 20 flowers are usually male, followed by female flowers in a ratio of about 10 male to 1 female. These varieties produce fruit over a longer period of time. These cucumbers will grow both female and male flowers. Such cucumber plants do not need another cultivar cucumber plant for pollination. They require bees, other insects, or wind, however, to spread their pollen from their male flowers to their female flowers. These would be the type to grow in a greenhouse with a fan to spread the pollen. Our Non-GMO seeds are sustainable.
