The 'CUCUMBER' variety belongs to the musk melon group and is a medium-maturing, long-vine culture. The fruits of this variety are large, weighing from 2.5 to 5 kg and more, with a flat-round shape and a dense dark green peel, which turns light brown upon ripening. The pumpkin flesh has a rich orange hue, sometimes with a red tint, 4 to 6 cm thick, sweet, juicy, and starchy, making it particularly attractive for various culinary purposes.
The 'CUCUMBER' variety is characterized by high resistance to most diseases and tolerates adverse weather conditions well, ensuring stable productivity. The plant forms 3 to 5 fruits per bush, and due to good storability, the fruits maintain their qualities throughout the winter. The pumpkin is particularly well adapted for cultivation in non-chernozem regions, expanding its cultivation opportunities.
This variety is versatile in application: fruits are suitable for winter preserves, canning, preparing various dishes, and can also be used as animal feed. The high yield of the variety allows collecting from 352 to 560 centners of pumpkin per hectare, making 'CUCUMBER' a profitable choice for gardeners and farmers seeking to obtain high-quality and tasty harvest.
