Cucumber LIBELLE

Cucumber Libelle — a mid-early hybrid variety that matures in an average of 44-52 days. It is suitable for cultivation both in open ground and under plastic coverings, making it a versatile choice for various climatic conditions. The plant is medium-vining with long tendrils, which contributes to high yields reaching 5-10 kg per square meter. Seeds begin to germinate at a temperature of +13-15°C, while optimal growth conditions are +25-30°C. Libelle prefers sunny areas with light, fertile soils and requires regular watering with warm water, fertilization, weeding, and loosening to maintain plant health and productivity.

The fruits of cucumber Libelle have an elongated-oval shape, measuring 10-14 cm in length and 100-150 grams in weight. The zucchini are dark green with a finely warty surface and white pubescence, possessing a thin skin and crisp, juicy flesh. Due to their qualities, cucumbers are suitable for both fresh consumption and winter preservation. They can be harvested at the cornichon stage or in a more mature state, offering flexibility in usage.

The Libelle variety is characterized by high resistance to major cucumber diseases, including cladosporiosis, spotting, and false powdery mildew. This significantly reduces the risk of yield losses and minimizes the need for frequent application of chemical protective agents. Thanks to its consistent fruiting and stable yield, Libelle is a reliable choice for gardeners and farmers seeking high-quality, flavorful cucumbers with minimal effort.
