A healthy cucumber plant typically produces between 15 and 30 cucumbers during its lifetime, depending on the variety and growing conditions. Some sources note an average of around 20 cucumbers per plant, while others mention yields ranging from about a dozen to as many as 30 fruits per plant
. Yields can vary by cucumber type:
- Slicing cucumber varieties usually produce about 8 to 10 fruits per plant.
- Pickling cucumber varieties often yield 12 to 15 cucumbers per plant.
- Asian cucumber varieties generally produce around 7 to 9 fruits per plant.
- Heirloom varieties like Lemon cucumbers can yield about 15 fruits per vine
Proper care such as regular harvesting, providing support (e.g., trellising), and ensuring good growing conditions can help maximize the number of cucumbers per plant
