Cooling cucumbers quickly helps increase their storage life and keep them crisp. Once cucumber vines start producing, I check daily and harvest often, they grow fast and can get overgrown quickly. To keep them crisp longer, I dunk them in cold water right after harvest. This removes field heat and slows down moisture loss. It’s a simple step, but it makes a big difference.
