Cucumber LP-2-12-1

Cucumber LP-2-12-1 is an early-maturing variety intended for cultivation both in greenhouses and in open ground. The plant features a long-vining type with strong vines up to 1.5 meters in length, ensuring uniform and abundant fruiting. The cucumbers have an oval-cylindrical shape, 9 to 12 cm in length, with a smooth, dense skin and black fuzz. The fruits possess high flavor and commercial qualities, making them suitable for fresh consumption as well as for canning, pickling, and salting.

Variety LP-2-12-1 exhibits high resistance to common diseases such as powdery mildew, bacterial wilt, olive spot, and root rot, which is especially important when grown in successive plantings or under unfavorable conditions. Seeds germinate at a temperature of 12-13°C, while the optimal temperature for plant growth is around 25°C. The plant requires pollination, making it suitable for open ground, and prefers sunny areas with fertile, loose soil. For planting, it is recommended to maintain a spacing of about 50 cm between plants, with row spacing of 70-90 cm.

Fruiting begins as early as 35-42 days after germination, enabling early and high yields. Seeds retain good viability under proper storage conditions — up to 6-8 years. The plant responds well to both organic and mineral fertilizers, which enhances yield and improves fruit quality. Due to its characteristics and versatility, variety LP-2-12-1 is an excellent choice for both home gardeners and professional farmers.
