Cucumber variety 'BraTishka' is a high-yielding early-maturing hybrid of cornichon type, intended for cultivation in open ground. The fruits have a bright green color, wavy surface, and cylindrical or conical shape, 6–10 cm long. They are thin-skinned, medium-sized (80–96 g), genetically free of bitterness, making them especially attractive for fresh consumption, as well as for pickling and canning. This variety is distinguished by high marketability and universal use, but particularly recommended for light pickling and salting due to its excellent taste qualities.
BraTishka is characterized by medium early maturity, ripening 35–45 days after planting, and has a prolonged fruiting period, allowing harvest until late autumn. The hybrid is bee-pollinated and exhibits increased resistance to complex diseases, significantly simplifying care and enhancing yield stability. For successful cultivation, choose sunny, wind-protected areas with light, nutrient-rich, well-drained soil.
For optimal growth and development of 'BraTishka' cucumber plants, regular watering with warm water and organic or complex fertilizers every 10–14 days are required. Plants are better supported on stakes or nets, which improves air circulation and facilitates harvest. The temperature regime for cultivation is +22°С to +28°С, providing comfortable conditions for growth and fruiting of this variety.
