    This looks to be a pickling cucumber so 4 to 6 inches is best. If you wait too long, you will have a lot of seeds.

    For that variety, yesterday. The seed packet should note the size of mature fruit for variety. You don’t want them to get overripe and seedy.

    I waited too long. I planted pickles and ended up with cucumbers.
