Sea cucumbers are typically 10 to 30 cm (3.9 to 11.8 in) in length, although the smallest known species are just 3 mm (0.12 in) long, and the largest can reach 3 meters (9.8 ft).The body ranges from almost spherical to worm-like, and lacks the arms found in many other echinoderms, such as starfish.
Pick cucumbers at any stage of development before the seeds become hard. Cucumbers usually are eaten when immature. The best size depends upon the use and variety. They may be picked when they are no more than 2 inches long for pickles, 4 to 6 inches long for dills and 6 to 8 inches long for slicing varieties. A cucumber is of highest quality when it is uniformly green, firm and crisp. The large, burpless cucumbers should be 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter and up to 10 inches long. Some varieties can grow considerably larger. Do not allow cucumbers to turn yellow.
