How to to save seeds from cucumbers !

The cucumber saved for seed needs to remain on the plant for 5

more weeks than a cucumber that is picked for eating. The

cucumber will turn a yellow or white color when ripe.

After the cucumber has ripened, remove the seeds with a spoon.

Place them in a bowl of water for 5 days, stirring every day. This will

remove the slick covering of the seeds. Once the seeds are rinsed

throughly, place them on a plate to dry. Pack the seeds away in a

glass canning jar once they are dry.
