Cucumber VICHN

Cucumber VICHN is a medium-early, high-yielding hybrid intended for cultivation both in open ground and under greenhouse conditions. The plant features predominantly female flowering and a generative growth type, which promotes the formation of a large number of fruits. The cucumbers are elongated, dark green, large-warty, weighing from 90 to 120 grams and measuring 12–14 centimeters in length. They have a uniform shape without light stripes, black-tipped, not prone to hollowing, and retain freshness for a long time without yellowing. The flavor qualities of the fruits are high, free of bitterness, making them suitable for various uses. The VICHN hybrid exhibits high resistance to major cucumber diseases such as cladosporiosis, cucumber mosaic virus, and powdery mildew. The plant tolerates shade well and dislikes overcrowding, which is important to consider when planting for maximum yield. The period from germination to the first harvest is 35–49 days, enabling early harvest. It is recommended to cultivate this cucumber in early spring and late autumn periods, especially in heated and unheated greenhouses. Cucumber VICHN is an excellent choice for those concerned about health and proper nutrition. The fruits consist of 90% water, which helps maintain hydration and eliminate toxins. They are rich in vitamins A, B, C, K, as well as microelements such as manganese, copper, and potassium. Including cucumbers in your diet helps improve overall well-being and maintain physical condition, thanks to their nutritional and beneficial properties.
