Cucumber Khrustik

Cucumber Crunchy — a fast-maturing parthenocarpic hybrid with a vegetation period of 40 to 48 days, intended for cultivation in greenhouses, under temporary film coverings, and in open ground. The plant is strong-growing, female-flowering, distinguished by abundant fruit set, forming 7-8 fruits per node. The hybrid is resistant to adverse environmental conditions and major cucumber diseases, ensuring stable and high yields of up to 10.9–11.7 kg per square meter.

The fruits of cucumber Crunchy are cylindrical, 8–12 cm long and 3.5–4.0 cm in diameter, weighing 70–110 grams. They have a dark green color with slight light stripes and mottling, and a bumpy surface with sparse medium-sized bumps. The pubescence is complex and white. The flesh is dense and crunchy, with a thin, tender skin, free of bitterness, and has a well-developed aroma. The pickles are sweet in taste and retain their characteristic cucumber crunch when pickled.

Cucumber Crunchy is versatile in application: it is used both fresh for salad preparation and for preservation. When grown on home plots, yields reach 7–8 kg per square meter, making this hybrid attractive for gardeners and farmers seeking high-quality and tasty harvests in a short time.
