Cucumber SV4097CV

SV4097CV — ultrarano hybrid cucumber, intended for cultivation in glass and plastic greenhouses. The plant is self-pollinating, light-loving, with an open bush type and short internodes, bearing 1-2 fruits. Balanced, generative bushes with a strong root system and fewer lateral shoots, facilitating care and increasing yield. The average period from germination to fruiting is 36-40 days, allowing the hybrid to be used for early cultivation in winter-spring and summer-autumn periods. SV4097CV fruits have a cylindrical shape, length of 11-13 cm, diameter of 3-3.4 cm, weight of 80-100 grams. They are dark green with white short stripes and clearly defined white spines, covered with dense hairs. The flesh is dense, crisp, and juicy, without voids, making the cucumbers suitable for fresh consumption, as well as for canning and pickling. Fruits are not prone to overgrowth, ensuring stable product quality throughout the fruiting period. The hybrid exhibits high plasticity and resistance to stress conditions, including temperature fluctuations and insufficient light. It is tolerant to major cucumber diseases such as brown spot, cucumber mosaic virus, and powdery mildew, reducing the need for intensive plant protection. SV4097CV is suitable for cultivation under various soil-climate conditions and demonstrates high yield — on average 8-10 kg per square meter, with maximum yields up to 15 kg. For optimal development, it is recommended to train the plant as a single stem with pinching lateral shoots and fruiting on early nodes.
