Cucumber Kazbek F1 is an early-maturing hybrid of cornichon type, specifically developed for cultivation in open ground. The maturation period is 38-39 days, allowing for a quick harvest. Plants have a strong root system and high growth vigor, ensuring their resilience and stability under various climatic conditions, including heat and drought. The hybrid quickly regenerates vegetative mass even under adverse conditions, such as diseases and stressful weather.
Kazbek fruits have a rich green color, dense structure without cavities, and reach sizes of 12-13 cm in length and 2.5-3 cm in diameter. The cucumbers are distinguished by excellent taste, absence of bitterness, and a bumpy, spiky surface without stripes. Fruit set occurs up to 2-3 fruits per axil, contributing to high yield. Due to their high density and quality, the cucumbers are well-suited for transportation and maintain their properties during processing.
The hybrid exhibits resistance to major cucumber diseases, including cladosporiosis, powdery mildew, vein yellowing virus, and yellow growth stop virus. This makes Kazbek F1 a reliable choice for cultivation in open ground and greenhouses, as well as for various crop rotations throughout the season. The cucumber is widely used for fresh consumption as well as processing — pickling, canning, and fermenting — while retaining its flavor, color, and density, which is highly valued by processors.
