BREAD SALTED

Cucumber 'Khlebosolnyy' is an early-maturing, bee-pollinated hybrid, distinguished by its rapid maturation: from germination to fruiting takes only 45-48 days. The plant is medium-height and moderately branched, with a bouquet-type flower arrangement, allowing up to three fruits per node. Fruits are cylindrical, 10-12 cm long, 3-4 cm in diameter, weighing 90-100 g. They are green with large, distinct bumps and a brownish-surfaced texture.

This hybrid is prized for its unique pickling qualities: the cucumbers are crisp, aromatic, and tasty, retaining their properties during preservation. They are ideal for pickling as well as for fresh consumption. 'Khlebosolnyy' has comprehensive resistance to major cucumber diseases, including root rot, true and false powdery mildew, making it a reliable choice for cultivation.

The hybrid is recommended for cultivation both in open ground and under temporary coverings. It adapts well to various conditions and yields high productivity — 15-17 kg per square meter. Seeds are suitable for planting in April-May, with flowering in June-July, allowing early harvest of fresh, high-quality cucumbers.
