There are many factors that influence how pickled cucumbers turn out, and the right variety is not the least of them.
Which varieties of cucumbers are best suited for pickling?
"Julian F1"
The variety is mid-early and provides its owner with fruits that have a regular cylindrical shape and a light green color with veins.
"Julian F1" boasts both high yield and disease resistance.
"Borus F1"
Another mid-early variety that is designed to be grown in open ground.
Like 'Julian F1', this variety is very productive and resistant to common cucumber diseases.
"Masha F1"
An early hybrid that can be grown both in a greenhouse and in open ground.
Its figured, papillary fruits can be used for both pickling and preparing salads.
Of course, these are not all the varieties that show the best results when pickled. For this purpose, you can also use cucumbers "Anulka", "Hermes Skiernewicki", "Odis" or "Polan", as well as others.
