Cucumber DELETER

DELETER — a medium-early parthenocarpic cucumber hybrid with a period from emergence to the start of fruiting of 41-45 days. The plant is strong, compact, well-leafed, with limited lateral branching, which simplifies care and harvest. The hybrid is intended for cultivation in spring-summer greenhouses, various temporary covers, as well as in open ground using either seedlings or direct sowing. The optimal soil temperature for seed germination is 23-25 °C, and planting density — 2-3 plants per 1 m². It is recommended to tie the plants to a trellis, pinch lateral shoots, and fertilize with mineral and organic fertilizers, watering with warm water.

DELETER cucumbers have a cylindrical shape, 8-10 cm long and weighing 90-95 grams, with a beautiful dark green color. They are characterized by crisp, firm texture, excellent flavor without bitterness, making them ideal for fresh consumption, pickling, and canning. The cucumbers have good market appearance and high transportability, ensuring convenient storage and transport.

The DELETER hybrid is distinguished by high yield — up to 9 kg per square meter, as well as resistance to major cucumber diseases and temperature stress. Fruit set is of the cluster type, with 3-4 young fruits forming in each node, each weighing about 40 grams. Harvesting is recommended every 3-5 days to maintain high fruit quality and stable yield.
