Introduction English Cucumber cultivation under naturally ventilated greenhouse conditions was found economically viable and the profits can further be improved through year-round cultivation in soilless media under a greenhouse aided with optimal microclimatic conditions. Cucumbers have very fast growth rate. Cucumbers are extremely sensitive to environmental parameters like light, air temperature & humidity and nutritional needs. For a cucumber crop to succeed, growers must strictly follow the crop's environmental and nutritional needs. Climate For good production, a temperature range of 25°C to 30°C during the day time and 18 °C to 22°C during night time is desirable. Peak day time temperatures of 30°C to 35°C are tolerable. In favourable environmental condition, the cucumber plants grow rapidly and produce lot of cucumber fruits. But prolonged periods of high temperatures may adversely affect the fruit quality. Night temperatures not lower than 18°C ...
