PULKA

Cucumber Pulkha is a medium-early hybrid of the cornichon type, suitable for cultivation both in greenhouses and in open ground. The plant has moderate growth strength and compact size, allowing for vertical cultivation methods. Fruits form with 1-2 cucumbers per node, have a length of 7 to 12 cm and weight of 35 to 90 grams, depending on the specific variety and growing conditions. The cucumbers are large-bump, with a vibrant green color and light stripes, possessing crisp flesh without bitterness, making them versatile for fresh consumption, pickling, and canning.

The Pulkha hybrid exhibits high resistance to major cucumber diseases such as powdery mildew and downy mildew, significantly simplifying care and increasing yield. The maturity period is 44 to 50 days, enabling early and stable harvests. Yield reaches 4-6.5 kg per square meter, making this hybrid attractive for both farmers and gardeners. The plant is self-pollinating, ensuring reliable fruiting without the need for insects, although bee pollination is also possible and may improve fruit set.

Pulkha is characterized by its low maintenance and resilience, allowing cultivation in various climatic conditions and on different soil types. Cucumbers are harvested daily once they reach optimal size, which helps maintain high fruit quality and stimulates further fruiting. Thanks to its early maturity, disease resistance, and excellent taste qualities, cucumber Pulkha is an excellent choice for cultivation on home plots and commercial greenhouses.
