Cucumber CRUNCHY

CRUNCHY — early maturing, bee-pollinated cucumber hybrid, intended for cultivation in open ground and under plastic covers. Female-flowering plants with medium-length vines start producing fruit around day 40-45 after germination. They are resistant to short-term cold snaps and tolerant to true powdery mildew, as well as resistant to powdery mildew (PM), cucumber mosaic virus (CMV-1), and root rots, ensuring a stable and high yield. CRUNCHY’s cucumbers are short, cylindrical, 8–10 cm long, finely ribbed, and white-tipped. They are dense, crunchy, free of bitterness, remain green for a long time, and possess excellent flavor — tender, juicy, and aromatic. The fruit length-to-diameter ratio is approximately 2.8:1, giving the cucumbers an attractive appearance and ease of use. This hybrid is especially suitable for pickling, salting, and canning due to its flavor and dense fruit structure. Yield under plastic covers reaches 11–12 kg per square meter, making CRUNCHY an excellent choice for gardeners seeking an early and high-quality cucumber harvest.
