This experimental was conducted to investigate the efficiency of polyethylene mulches and suitable sowing method on row, for cucumber in field in Isfahan during 2000 and 2001. Cultivar of cucumber was Super dominos hybrid. Statistical design was split plot on randomized complete block with four replications. Soil cover in three levels (black mulch, transparent mulch and without mulch) were considered as the main plot and sowing method in two levels (single and double rows) as sub plot. Field management and data collection from different treatments were done during growth period. Results showed that transparent polyethylene mulch had a positive effect on early germination of seeds and precocity production. Yield in transparent, black and non mulch treatments were 57.5, 40.2 and 33.6 (tha-1), respectively. Maximum plant vegetative growth and minimum weed were obtained from black polyethylene mulch treatment. Polyethylene mulches had a favorite effect on soil moisture maintenance in bed. Maximum yield was obtained in double row sowing method, but single row sowing increased the marketability of fruits, length and weight of plants.
