Sarazin F1 — parthenocarpic cucumber of vegetative type with high growth force. Recommended for film greenhouses for spring and autumn circulation. In summer-autumn circulation, flowering begins on the 32-35th day, in spring — on the 35-40th day.
Strong, rapidly developing root system makes it most resistant to wilting diseases. High degree of resistance to powdery mildew, root rot, tolerant to false powdery mildew.
Thanks to a powerful root system, Sarazin F1 can grow and bear fruit in soils infested with gall nematodes.
The hybrid is undemanding to nutrition.
The hybrid is stable in flowering, with guaranteed high and stable quality of products:
the lowest percentage of non-standard;
forms 1-2 ovaries in internodes on the central stem and up to 5 ovaries in internodes of lateral shoots. Ovaries do not fall off. Upon regeneration, it releases bouquet ovaries along the central stem.
yield dynamics: surpassed the leader of the Russian market by 40% during the first three harvests, and by 17% over the period of flowering.
Planting density — up to 2.5 plants per 1 sq.m.
Sarazin F1 successfully passed production tests in various conditions of Ukraine and southern Russia (film and glass greenhouses) and, based on the total data, took first place among cucumbers grown in the south.
Fruit characteristic:
— heavy fruit of regular cylindrical shape, genetically dark green color, with frequent medium-sized tubercles, black-spined, fruit length 12-15 cm
— transportable, skin is dense but not rough
— fragrant, with excellent taste
— fruit of universal type for use — suitable for salads and pickling (no cavity forms inside the fruit during salting)
— fastest ripening
— fruit grows proportionally, without losing color or shape — the main difference from hybrids presented on the market
— yield of standard products 95-98%
— due to large, proportional, beautiful fruits, it reduces harvesting and sorting time
— packed in a banana box, Sarazin F1 is 1.5 kg heavier than the standard!
Stable high-quality seed production:
— excellent seeds
— viral diseases are absent in the seed material
Features of growing hybrid cucumber Sarazin F1
Sarazin F1 is a parthenocarpic cucumber of vegetative type, with high growth force, so it cannot be allowed to fatten. On the lower meter of the cucumber plant, all fruits are left, but all lateral shoots and leaves are removed in order not to shade them. Without light, fruits can form hook-shaped.
All side shoots formed above 1 m are pinched on 1-2 leaves (depending on planting density).
Recommended planting density — up to 2.5 plants per 1 sq.m.
In feeding the cucumber Sarazin, it is initially necessary to maintain a ratio between N: K of 1: 1.5.
Sarazin F1, unlike hybrids of generative type, does not fear sharp fluctuations in daily — night temperatures, prolonged low or, conversely, elevated temperatures. Stresses and adverse conditions, on the contrary, stimulate flowering in this hybrid.
Light and mandatory ventilation of the greenhouse are limiting factors for flowering of Saracin.
Sarazin F1 has a very high yield potential. It gives 20 kg of fruits or more from 1 sq.m. due to its long growing season. The yield during the first month of fruiting is about 10-11 kg/sq.m.
Easily regenerates. Nitrogen, water and humates stimulate regeneration.
In film greenhouses, it is better suited for the second circulation, since it enters flowering a little later than hybrids of generative type, and mass harvesting occurs during periods with unfavorable conditions for growing in unheated greenhouses. The high stress resistance of Saracin allows him to reveal his potential more fully in such conditions than generative hybrids.
In summer-autumn circulation, the first harvest of 3-4 commercial fruits from a plant is removed on the 32-35th day after germination. In spring turnover, Sarazin gives a larger crop than in autumn, most of which falls in May.
Fruit selection should be done every other day, however, even when the fruit overgrows, its proportion (the ratio of the length of the fruit to its width = 3.5) is not violated and the color does not change (dark green).
Optimal planting scheme: (0.45 x 0.5) x 1 m.
