Branching is medium or above medium. 1-2 fruits form at each node. Cucumbers are large-bump, white-stemmed, 10-12 cm long, dense and crisp; excellent salted and canned qualities. Intense plant growth, strong root system, active lateral shoot development, combined with cold resistance and comprehensive disease resistance, ensure prolonged, synchronized fruiting until autumn frosts. The hybrid is resistant to powdery mildew, olive spot, and common cucumber mosaic virus, and tolerant to false powdery mildew. Add 10% pollinator to Farmer F1 plantings. Colored pollinator seeds are included in each hybrid packet.
