You need the appropriate seeds or plants, use good potting or garden soil if you are planting in an new area. Unless you are planning on letting them run throughout the garden, you will need a trellis or something for them to grow the vines up. They like plenty of water to get healthy fruit and tomato and veggie fertilizer as directed. I use the granular extended release fertilizer, this way I can fertilize once, maybe twice a growing season. -

You have to purchase the packets of seed that say "Seedless Cucumbers". Plant the ordinary way. -

Go to your local nursery... and see if they have some of the cucumber plants.... look for seedless ones.... they can be grown on a trellis if you have a small space (and it keeps the cukes out of the dirt) -

local garden centers have them in vegs 4-6 pks mixed in with the other cucumbers. You can buy seeds also, but I've have better luck with the plants. Look for BURPLESS or ENGLISH cucumbers on the tray packs. -

The seedless varieties of cucumbers would only have immature seeds if any, they are seedless. I would say you need to find the actual plant to plant. I have never planted the seedless variety. I don't plant many veggies by seed other than carrots, green beans and corn. My growing season is not the longest, so If I want good produce, I start with plants, The ones that I start never seem to mature very fast and I don't get much produce out of them by the end of the season, I do much better with plants that are a little more mature. Unless the seeds you collect are from heirloom forms of the plants, you may not get the same as the veggie you get your seeds from, that is the way of hybrids with any plants.
