Cucumber AZART F1

AZART F1 — an early-maturing parthenocarpic hybrid. Intended for spring-summer and summer-autumn cultivation in plastic greenhouses and open ground. The plant is semi-determinate, medium-height, medium-branched, with small leaves, female-type flowering and high parthenocarpy. The fruits are ribbed, green, with white pubescence, short (8–10 cm). The fruits are free of bitterness and possess high commercial quality and transportability. Total yield in open ground and non-heated plastic greenhouses — 2–4 kg per plant. The hybrid is resistant to true and false powdery mildew. Its advantage over similar hybrids lies in the plant’s low vegetative mass, which allows increasing the planting density or transplanting seedlings under drip irrigation in open ground up to 50,000 plants/ha according to the scheme (200+40)×17 cm. In this case, yield during the harvest period increases to 100–120 t/ha. Due to its high disease resistance, this hybrid can be grown under unfavorable weather conditions.
