Cucumber seeds are fairly easy to obtain and store, and hence, are a good start to your Road Back to Nature. firstly you must wait till the cucumber to ripen on the plant, when it is ripe-You simply need to cut the fully cucumber vertically in half, and remove the seeds from the centre (the soft pulp can be used in a chutney or a green juice). Once removed, wash the seeds in water, and dry them outside, before you store it in a clean container.(Pro tip:label the container with contents and date)

Seeds are a resource as important as water and food; they are a precursor of whole civilizations. To save seeds is an act of love.

Plant these seeds in a pot or in a soil patch, and soon enough you will have new cucumber plants.
