Jigit F1 is a mid-early hybrid cucumber for salad use, distinguished by its excellent taste and aroma. The fruits of this variety reach 18-20 cm in length, up to 4 cm in diameter, and weigh 180-200 g. They have an elongated-cylindrical shape, white-tipped, and large-warty, giving them an attractive appearance and high commercial quality. The plant is pollinated by bees, with mixed flowering type but high female node density, which promotes the formation of two fruits per node.
Jigit F1 is characterized by strong growth and indeterminate growth habit, as well as good regenerative capacity, ensuring stable and prolonged fruiting throughout the season. This hybrid is resistant to cucumber mosaic virus and olive spot disease, significantly increasing its reliability and reducing the risk of crop loss. The fruits retain freshness and commercial appearance for a long time after harvest, making them convenient for storage and transport.
The plant is recommended for cultivation in plastic greenhouses, where it demonstrates high productivity and adaptability. The average fruit maturity period is 45-52 days after emergence, allowing for relatively quick harvest. Due to its characteristics and disease resistance, Jigit F1 is an excellent choice for those who value high-quality, flavorful, and aromatic cucumbers of normal size.
