NIIOH 412

Cucumber NIIOH 412 is a hybrid developed by the All-Russian Research Institute of Vegetable Growing, characterized by high yield and good fruit quality. This variety is recommended for cultivation in protected soil, especially in winter greenhouses during the winter-spring rotation, enabling early and stable harvests. The fruits are cylindrical, green, 28–39 cm long, weighing 354–389 grams, and possess excellent flavor when fresh.

The NIIOH 412 hybrid is adaptable and resilient to various climatic conditions, making it suitable for cultivation both in open ground and in greenhouses. The seeds of this variety ensure high germination rates and stable fruit formation, contributing to high yields. Additionally, the cucumber exhibits resistance to major diseases such as powdery mildew, ascochitosis, and root rot, reducing the risk of crop loss and minimizing the need for intensive plant protection.

A distinctive feature of this variety is its parthenocarpic type, allowing fruits to develop without pollination. This enables cucumber cultivation without insect pollinators during flowering, which is especially important in greenhouse conditions. Parthenocarpic cucumbers exhibit nearly 100% fruit set, absence of seeds inside, and high flesh density. These characteristics make NIIOH 412 convenient for cultivation both in home gardens and on farms, ensuring a stable and high-quality harvest.
