Bush Cucumbers?

Has anyone tried these? I ran across some at the local Ace and thought that it might be fun to try but what about spacing? Similar to bush beans or...? :scratch:

I had good success with SpaceMaster last year. I did build a short trellis (4 ft) for them because I really cram a lot into a small space. They were good performers, but I have a lot of bees that do the pollinating.

I am trying some that are labeled container cucumbers this year, thinking I would put them in 11 inch planters.

Cool, I may just have to give them a try then. I'm thinking 2 to a square. Thoughts?
