Thanks Jonno. I think I will plant seeds in a punnet. Much cheaper.

Cucumbers, Put in seeds, punnets are best and a small plastic greenhouse.
I reckon you could wait for the peas to turn up their toes, or be forceful
and pull them out, and prepare the ground for cucumbers. If the cucumbers
were happy, didn't suffer any diseases, I have got away with planting them
in the same spot year after year.
They can suffer from mildew at times. Shouldnt be aproblem if youre
planting them on a trellis wire. They of course prefer a warm sunny spot.
You could try for seedlings, but I like to plant he seeds too.
Running cucumbers through the strawberries is one way of saving space.
I know I do this with the pumpkins. No problems at all, and it keeps the
ground cool in high summer....

Last year I had a really successful crop of burpless cucumbers over
summer. I grew them on some trellised wire running across the veggie
patch. I think my lovely snow peas are coming to an end (less flowers,
the pods are curling rather than flat) and I really want to get the
cucumbers going soon.
Is it near time to pull out the snow peas?
Can I plant the cucumbers in the same spot as last summer, after soil
improvement, etc?
Is it too early for seedlings or should I try seed?
Cheers
