Miniature White cucumber seeds
Miniature white cucumbers are fun to grow and container-friendly variety to grow. These little cucumbers are 3 inches long on average, lightly spined, and subtly sweet. These are not bitter like other varieties. They are white in color and excellent for trellising. These are great for making small cucumber boats, pickling, or snaking on while you are gardening. They also go great in iced water during the warmer months. The skin is thin so peeling won't be necessary.
These are a good option if you have a shorter garden season as they mature earlier than other varieties. Vines will only reach around 3 feet so you can plant in a container with a tomato cage, or a bamboo tee-pee trellis, and they will have plenty of room to grow. These will need full sun and plenty of water.
