Cucumber BORDER

Cucumber variety BORDER is a mid-early, high-yielding variety intended for cultivation in open ground. Fruit set occurs on day 47-51 after emergence, enabling the harvest of fresh green cucumbers relatively quickly. The plant features a medium-height or long-vining bush with a main stem length of 1.6 to 2.3 meters and moderate vining tendency. The fruit is cluster-fruiting, with oval-cylindrical shape, large-bump surface, and length of 10-12 cm, weight 85 to 126 grams. The cucumbers are green with blurred white longitudinal stripes, have a rounded-triangular cross-section, and sparse black hairs. The variety is distinguished by excellent taste qualities: the fruits are tender, juicy, crisp, and free of bitterness, making them ideal for fresh consumption, pickling, and preservation. After processing, the cucumbers retain their vibrant color and structure, confirmed by positive consumer feedback. Yield ranges from 2.2 to 3.6 kg per square meter, making it attractive for commercial cultivation. The variety responds well to mineral fertilization and prefers fertile soils such as clay loams and sandy loams, while being demanding in terms of water and warmth. BORDER exhibits high resistance to major cucumber diseases, including powdery mildew, anthracnose, and cucumber mosaic virus, and is less susceptible to false powdery mildew. These traits ensure stable yields and allow cultivation under various climatic conditions. Due to its characteristics and versatility, cucumber BORDER is an excellent choice for gardeners and farmers aiming to achieve high-quality, flavorful harvests.
