Hi, I currently grow cucumbers in my greenhouse but wondered what you have to do to grow them in the winter, eg the temperature they need to be kept at, what special equipment i need etc. Thanks

It would not be feasible to grow cucumbers in the winter. The greenhouse needs heat.Your electric bill would outway the price of cucumbers at the store.

Have you heard of hotbeds? You can construct one for your balcony; back yard or spare room armed with grow lights. Look up winter gardening for your geographical area. Happy gardening.

a propagator is good for getting them going, then in a glass or plastic cloche, tons of mulch and a parrafin heater, 20c would do it, then notch it up when they start getting big, your only prob might be lighting, as it gets dark earlier in winter (obviously)

My best guess would be at the local wal-mart, in the grocery side
