Eskenderany F1 — an early hybrid zucchini with cylindrical shape and light green skin, developed by Seminis. Plants feature sturdy, semi-upright, and compact bushes, ensuring good resistance to low temperatures, especially when sown early. The fruit ripens in 40-45 days after sowing, enabling a quick harvest. Fruits are 15-20 cm long, weighing 200-500 grams, with thin, shiny skin covered with small white spots. The flesh is tender, light cream-colored, with excellent taste.
The hybrid is characterized by high yield: 4 to 14 fruits per plant, which at a planting density of approximately 15,000 plants per hectare allows harvesting up to 60 tons per hectare. Eskenderany F1 zucchini have good transportability, making them attractive for retail sale and canning. The plant is resistant to diseases of cucurbit crops, reducing cultivation risks.
The hybrid can be grown both in open ground and under plastic covers. Sowing is recommended when temperatures are stable, typically at the end of spring, either as seedlings or direct sowing into holes 60x60 cm. Main care includes regular watering, weed control, and fertilization, promoting the formation of strong, high-quality fruits. Eskenderany F1 is suitable for diverse culinary uses due to its tender flesh and excellent taste.
