Grow a garden filled with these abnormally long cucumbers, aptly named Armenian Yard Long, from freshly harvested Cucumis melo seeds. Armenian Yard Long, also known as Snake Melon, or Serpent Cucumber, will produce light green, almost yellow fruits that measure a couple of feet long. They are best picked at a size of around 12 inches to 18 inches in length. The Armenian Yard Long looks and tastes like a cucumber, but is technically a melon. When you slice it open, you might notice a faint cantaloupe aroma.


Armenian Yard Long is a prolific variety that performs well in hot climates. The vines grow quickly, taking up roughly 3 to 5 feet of land. You might consider providing your cucumber plants a trellis or other support to grow these vines vertically. The vining plants grow to a mature height of roughly 1 to 2 feet tall when grown without supports and produce S shaped fruits on the ground. The fruits will not bend if grown vertically. Armenian Yard Long is ready for harvesting in about 50 to 75 days.


Cucumbers taste great in salads, and most varieties are pickled as well. There are several health benefits that you may be interested in learning about, when it comes to consuming cucumbers. Some of these benefits include, reduced risk of cancer, reduced inflammation, fresher breath and benefits in weight loss.
