I hope this helps. **Q: Do these need hand pollinating if there grown in a greenhouse?** A: I don't think so. I grew it in a greenhouse and it did start tiny fruits but they fell off before developing so I can't recommend it. Good luck. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mini cucumber *by S***K on 18 April 2026* They grow well but are a acquired taste they look good when grown excellent little plant ☘️ thank you 😁 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Camt wait to try *by C***H on 28 April 2026* Slow to start so was a little concerned, Apprently they take a while to get started then pick up pace ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hit and miss success but gorgeous when grown to full size *by M***S on 6 April 2026* I bought these last year and had great success.
