Cucumber LENNOON

LENNOON F1 is a high-yielding parthenocarpic hybrid of cucumber of cornichon type, intended for cultivation in open ground. The plant is indeterminate, weakly branched, with a female flower type, and predominantly 2-3 female flowers form at each node. Leaves have medium length and dark green color. Cucumbers are short, cylindrical, 10-12 cm long, with a length-to-diameter ratio of 3.1:1, dark green with short stripes, large-warty, and covered with white spines. Fruit weight ranges from 80 to 110 grams, with a sweet and crunchy flavor, making them an excellent choice for fresh consumption as well as for canning.

The plant exhibits balanced growth and a well-developed root system, contributing to its high stress resistance. LENNOON F1 has high immunity to major cucumber diseases, including downy mildew (Ccu) and true powdery mildew (Px, ex Sf), as well as moderate resistance to cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). These qualities make this hybrid a reliable and productive choice for gardeners aiming to achieve a stable harvest even under adverse conditions.

The hybrid producer is the company Rijk Zwaan, which specializes in light crops and recommends growing LENNOON F1 both in open ground and on trellises. Due to its characteristics and resistance, this hybrid is suitable for various cultivation methods and ensures high-quality fruits, making it popular among gardeners and farmers.
