Cucumber Benefis

Benefis F1 — an early parthenocarpic hybrid cucumber of female flowering type, maturing in 45-50 days after emergence. Zucchinis reach a length of 10-13 cm and a weight of 100-120 g, have dark green coloration, frequently located small bumps, and white spines. Fruits are characterized by a sweet taste, absence of bitterness, strong structure, as well as good storability and transportability, making them universal for use fresh, as well as for pickling and marinating.

The hybrid is intended for cultivation both in protected ground and in open ground under temporary plastic coverings. Sowing seedlings is recommended in late April, and transplanting seedlings into the ground — in late May or early June, when plants reach the 3-4 true leaf stage. Direct sowing into the ground in late May is also possible. The optimal planting scheme is 50x50 cm. Two to four fruits form in leaf axils, sometimes up to 6-8, contributing to high yield.

The Benefis hybrid exhibits high resistance to true and false powdery mildew, as well as to root rot, ensuring a stable and abundant yield. Yield per plant ranges from 6 to 8 kg, making this variety attractive for gardeners and farmers seeking high-quality, tasty cucumbers with good agronomic characteristics.
