Skin is not bitter and the entire cucumber can be eaten without peeling. This heavy-yielding cucumber variety should be picked when three to five inches long. Tendergreen cucumber's small size and lack of bitterness make it ideal for salads and sandwiches. This is ideal for any home gardener wanting high yields of crisp, sweet cucumbers.
