Variety description

10 August 2026

The hybrid's vegetation period is about 54 days. The fruits have dark green shiny skin, are covered with small tubercles, and are distinguished by an elongated shape with lengths ranging from 21 to 30 cm, sometimes reaching 45 cm. The plant is vigorous, with predominantly female flowering.

The fruit flesh is firm, crunchy, and free of bitterness. Due to its properties, the cucumbers are suitable for fresh consumption, pickling, and heat treatment. The variety possesses resistance to downy mildew and powdery mildew.

The hybrid is intended for cultivation in open field and protected cultivation, as well as in containers. The recommended planting scheme is 80–100 cm between rows and 20–40 cm between plants; the optimal temperature for seed germination is 15–20°C.
