Spike

Spike F1 cucumber is an early hybrid with a strong root system that ensures good plant growth and development even at low temperatures. The plant is well-balanced and tolerates insufficient light, allowing successful cultivation both early in spring and late in autumn. Spike F1 is ideal for first and second crop rotations, showing stable yields regardless of stressful conditions. Fruit set is uniform, without skips, ensuring a consistent supply of produce.

Spike cucumber fruits are 12-13 cm long, dark green in color, with prominent large spines that give them an attractive market appearance. Each internode forms 1-2 high-quality green fruits, suitable for both consumption and processing. The cucumbers retain freshness and market appearance during long-term storage and are suitable for long-distance transportation. They are distinguished by excellent flavor qualities, both fresh and for pickling or marinating.

The hybrid shows high resistance to cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV), and true powdery mildew (Px). It also exhibits moderate resistance to false powdery mildew (Pcu) and green mottle mosaic virus (SGMMV). The plant is female-flowering, forming 1-2 fruits per node, which contributes to high yields. These characteristics make Spike F1 cucumber an excellent choice for processing plants and farmers aiming for a stable and high-quality harvest.
