Cucumber AYANA

Cucumber AYANA — a mid-season parthenocarpic hybrid intended for cultivation in open ground and under plastic covers. The plant is vigorous and female-flowering, forming one to three female flowers per node, which contributes to high yield. The cucumbers are short, cylindrical, slightly ribbed, dark green with large bumps and white hairs. Fruit length ranges from 8 to 12 cm, weight varies from 70 to 110 g, and they feature a crisp texture and absence of bitterness, making them ideal for fresh consumption and canning.

The plant has a strong stem and medium-sized, dark green leaves, ensuring good resistance to adverse conditions of open-ground cultivation. The hybrid demonstrates high resistance to true and false powdery mildew, as well as to stem and root rot, significantly reducing disease risks and yield losses. Moreover, AYANA exhibits cold tolerance and excellent regenerative properties, allowing successful cultivation under various climatic conditions.

The AYANA hybrid is characterized by high yield, reaching 4.6–5.0 kg per square meter, and stable fruiting from the start of the season. The fruits have an attractive appearance and optimal length-to-thickness ratio, making them convenient for processing and fresh consumption. Thanks to its qualities and resistance, cucumber AYANA is an excellent choice for both hobbyist and commercial cultivation.
