Cucumber variety VECTOR is a medium-ripening, high-yielding variety developed by the Siberian Research Institute of Plant Growing and Selection, adapted for cultivation in the Ural and Siberian regions. Plants are medium-height with frequent white compound spines. Cucumbers are small, cylindrical, 8-12 cm long, with large bumps and distinct green stripes up to the middle of the fruit. Fruit weight ranges from 70 to 125 grams. The flavor of fresh cucumbers is excellent, suitable for fresh consumption, pickling, and canning. The VECTOR variety is characterized by high adaptability and resistance to adverse growing conditions. It tolerates low temperatures and limited moisture, making it a reliable choice for open ground and plastic covers. Additionally, the variety is resistant to diseases such as bacterial spot, false powdery mildew, and anthracnose, ensuring stable yields even under challenging climatic conditions. A distinctive feature of the variety is its tendency to form parthenocarpic fruits, ensuring self-pollination and increased yield. The vegetative period from germination to fruiting is 43-45 days, allowing for an early harvest. Cucumbers of the VECTOR variety are suitable for various uses, including fresh consumption, pickling, and canning, thanks to their excellent flavor and attractive appearance.
