{"product_id":"marketmore-cucumber","title":"Marketmore Cucumber","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eMarketmore cucumber is a popular open-pollinated slicing variety producing straight, uniform cylindrical fruits typically 8-10 inches long and 2-2.5 inches in diameter, with smooth, dark green skin that's thin and tender, crisp white flesh, and small seeds when harvested young. The flavor is classic and excellent—mild, sweet, refreshing, and non-bitter with a clean cucumber taste that's ideal for fresh eating, thanks to its low bitterness even under stress or when slightly over-mature. These cucumbers are fantastic sliced raw in salads, sandwiches, and crudités, used for tzatziki or raita, pickled as spears or slices, blended into gazpacho or smoothies, or added to wraps and chilled soups for cool, crisp texture. This variety is a top recommendation for Utah because it's widely listed by USU Extension as one of the most reliable cucumbers for our region—heat-tolerant in hot, dry summers, disease-resistant (especially to cucumber mosaic virus, powdery mildew, and scab), and productive in well-drained soil with consistent moisture, making it a dependable performer in shorter high-elevation seasons when using transplants for an early start. It's great for containers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salt City Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Individual Plant","offer_id":44848942055533,"sku":"mark-cuc-01","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-Pack","offer_id":44848942022765,"sku":"mark-cuc-04","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/6774\/9997\/files\/Marketmore.jpg?v=1773699721","url":"https:\/\/saltcitygardens.com\/products\/marketmore-cucumber","provider":"Salt City Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
