Cucumber GREAT FIVE

Cucumber variety 'Great Five' is an early ultra-early, parthenocarpic hybrid, intended for cultivation in open ground and under plastic coverings. The period from germination to the start of fruiting is 38-42 days, allowing for a first harvest relatively quickly. Female-type flowering plants form 4 to 6 cucumbers per node, ensuring high yield up to 15-16 kg per square meter.

Fruits have a cylindrical shape, 9-12 cm long and weighing 75-85 g. They are characterized by uniform size and shape, finely ribbed surface with white spines. The cucumbers are crisp, juicy, with a pleasant sweet taste and aroma, never becoming bitter. Thanks to these qualities, the cucumbers are suitable for fresh consumption, pickling, and canning.

The hybrid has high resistance to major cucumber diseases, including root rot, powdery mildew, cladosporiasis, and cucumber mosaic virus. It tolerates adverse weather conditions well and can continue fruiting until frost, making it a reliable choice for gardeners seeking a stable and high-quality harvest.
