Abstract: Cultivation experiments were carried out both in solar greenhouse and modern glasshouse by making use of five different cucumber varieties in different seasons, one simple experimental calculating formula of cucumber leaf area was put forward, with k=0.743 by he method of leaf length times leaf width. The change of leaf area and plant height under different cropping was studied, there is significantly positive linear correlation between plant stem height with leaf and total leaf area with coefficient of 0.991, using stem height with leaf instead of leaf area could simplify the related calculating of leaf area was pointed out in the article.
