According to Waverly Root's "Food" and I quote
The cucumber was slow to penetrate into norther Europe, where after al the
claimate was not kindly disposed toward it. i t seems to have appeared in
France and England about the same time, in the fourteenth century, but it may
not have ben known in Germany until the sixteenth if a doucument of that
period which chronicles its appearanc in Wurttemberg was really reporting a
novelty.
That's all I have at hand on them.
