To plant Beit Alpha CMR/MMR cucumber seeds, choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of about 6 inches and incorporating compost or aged manure. Sow the seeds directly into the soil once all danger of frost has passed, planting them 1/2 inch deep and spacing them 12 to 24 inches apart in rows or hills. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the germination period, which typically takes 7 to 14 days. Provide support for the vines to climb as they grow.
