Double Yield - Gherkin
This extremely prolific variety produces dark green fruits, around 15 cm long when ripe. They can be eaten fresh, like a cucumber, or pickled in vinegar.
It was introduced in 1924 by the Joseph Harris Company of Coldwater, New York, with the claim that for every pickle harvested, the plant produces two or three more.

Transplant with the root ball, after the last frosts, in planting holes enriched with compost, spaced 1 m apart in all directions. Sowing in the open ground under the same conditions is possible when the soil is well warmed and outside temperatures no longer fall below 15°C.
