Product Overview
Quick Snack is a compact cucumber variety that delivers effortless, reliable harvests of crisp mini fruits perfect for eating straight off the vine. The plants stay neatly contained rather than spreading aggressively, making them ideal for smaller gardens or mixed beds. Each cucumber has a mild, lightly sweet flavour and a satisfying crunch without being tough or overly firm. There’s no peeling or prep required—just pick and enjoy. Fast producing and consistently uniform, Quick Snack offers convenient, bite-sized cucumbers that tend to get eaten as quickly as they appear.
