Cucumber Velox

Cucumber Velox is a medium-early parthenocarpic hybrid with a vegetative period of 40-42 days from emergence of seedlings. The fruits of this variety have a dark green color, cylindrical shape with large bumps, length of 10-12 cm, and a length-to-thickness ratio of about 3-3.3:1. The flesh is crisp, tender, and void of cavities, making them particularly attractive for fresh consumption and processing, including pickling and marination.

The plant exhibits high stress resistance and adaptability to growing conditions, quickly recovering from damage. The leaves are large, providing reliable shading for fruits from sunburn, which contributes to maintaining harvest quality. The hybrid is suitable for cultivation both in open and protected soil, expanding its usability in various climatic conditions.

Velox possesses high resistance to powdery mildew, as well as moderate resistance to cladosporiosis and cucumber mosaic virus. These characteristics make it a reliable choice for farmers aiming to obtain a stable and high-quality harvest. The hybrid is produced in the Netherlands, ensuring high seed quality and compliance with modern agronomic standards.
