I only ever grow a few cucumbers each year, so I saved the rest of the
packet and palnted the remainder this year, more than three weeks ago.
The seed have not germinated. Do cucumber seeds have a short viable
lifetime? I have packs of other types of seeds from way-back-when and
these
seem to be viable for years.

Are they indoors, greenhouse or where? I would have thought it was a bit
early for cucumbers yet. My nearest to hand book says sow late April under
glass, late May outdoors.

They were planted in pots in my greenhouse. Since I'm in the SouthWest I
was thinking I'd get ahead of the game a little and start early. I shall
start
again and plant some more and try to germinate them on my windowsill, if
I can find any space!

thanks,

Andy.
