Vegetable Waters Cucumber is a popular vegetable widely used in cooking both fresh and preserved. This variety is distinguished by its high nutritional value and beneficial properties, especially recommended for people with cardiovascular diseases and digestive problems. Cucumbers have a diuretic effect, helping to eliminate excess fluid from the body and reduce edema, making them indispensable in maintaining health.
The Vegetable Waters variety is characterized by a late maturity period, approximately 60-65 days, allowing enjoyment of fresh fruits until late autumn. The fruits have an oval shape, length from 8 to 12 cm, and weight from 90 to 110 grams. Their surface is covered with large bumps, and the color is green with bright yellow stripes. Due to the genetic trait of lacking bitterness, these cucumbers are suitable for fresh consumption and are versatile in use: they are ideal for salads, pickling, sushi, and various snacks.
Growing Vegetable Waters cucumber is possible in open ground, where it demonstrates high resistance to sudden temperature fluctuations and major diseases. Plants reach a height of about 15 cm, require moderate soil moisture, and infrequent watering. For planting, it is recommended to maintain a spacing of about 30 cm between plants, and the seed planting depth is approximately 3 cm. This variety prefers sunny locations and is suitable for garden cultivation, providing stable and abundant fruiting until the first frost.
