Lavina F1 cucumber is an early-maturing, bee-pollinated variety with predominantly female flowering, beginning to ripen 40-45 days after germination. It fruits over a period of 45-55 days, allowing for a stable harvest over an extended period. The zucchini of this variety have a proper elongated cylindrical shape with large, sparse bumps, up to 23 cm long and up to 170 g in weight, with a fruit length-to-thickness ratio of 4.2 to 1. The fruits are uniform in shape and size, making them attractive to consumers and easy to slice.
Lavina F1 cucumber has a dark green color and a juicy, crisp texture without bitterness, ensuring high flavor quality and aroma. This variety does not overgrow and retains its size and shape even under unfavorable growing conditions, making it a reliable choice for summer salads and fresh slicing. Due to its characteristics, Lavina F1 cucumber is ideal for culinary use where product aesthetics and taste are important.
Special attention has been paid to the variety’s resistance to major cucumber diseases: it shows high resistance to olive spot, false and true powdery mildew, and cucumber mosaic virus. This significantly reduces the risk of crop loss and reduces the need for chemical plant protection, making cultivation more eco-friendly and economical.
