Grow Juicy Cucumbers in January: 7 Easy Steps to Beat Frost and Cold

  • Start seeds indoors in seedling trays with coco peat and vermicompost, maintaining 20-25°C for germination.
  • Provide 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily; use a transparent plastic sheet outdoors to maintain warmth and moisture.
  • Transplant 3-4 inch tall plants into larger pots with loamy soil mixed with 40% cow dung manure or vermicompost.
  • Water with lukewarm water only when topsoil is dry, preferably in the morning, and use bamboo stakes or netting for vertical growth.
