Cucumber Valigora

Valigora F1 is an early-maturing parthenocarpic hybrid of the cornichon type, developed by the Dutch breeding company Rijk Zwaan. This hybrid is intended for cultivation in greenhouses during winter-spring and summer-autumn periods, ensuring its versatility and high adaptability to various growing conditions. The plant is robust, with a well-developed root system and medium-length stems, possessing good regeneration and the ability to withstand fruit loads. The vegetative period is approximately 40-45 days, allowing for an early harvest.

The fruits of Valigora cucumber have a cylindrical shape, measuring 11 to 14 cm in length, with a length-to-diameter ratio of approximately 3.3-3.4:1. The skin is dark green, shiny, and covered with small, well-defined spines. The flesh is dense, juicy, and crisp, with a small seed cavity and no bitterness, making this variety ideal for fresh consumption, salad preparation, and preservation. The high flavor quality and internal structure of the fruits ensure their popularity in the fresh vegetable market.

The Valigora hybrid exhibits high resistance to stress, water deficiency, and diseases such as cucumber mosaic and green mottle mosaic. The plant quickly absorbs water and nutrients, contributing to a high yield. It is recommended to grow this variety as seedlings in greenhouses, allowing for effective control of growing conditions and a consistent, high-quality harvest throughout the season.
