It is important not only to preserve the favorite and fruitful variety of vegetables in your personal garden. It is worth working for the future and looking for equally high-quality varieties and hybrids.
Summer residents were told which cucumber seeds they should pay attention to before the start of the 2024 sowing campaign.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", an agronomist and landscape designer, spoke about the best cucumber seeds.
Firstly, if we are talking about a greenhouse, it is best to choose hybrids.
Secondly, for any varieties and hybrids, the watering and feeding schedule is important.
"Courage"
This is a hybrid, early ripening, abundantly bears fruit, cucumbers grow up to 12 cm, even in shape. The harvest is crispy, juicy and aromatic.
The most important thing is that the culture is resistant to diseases.

Also a hybrid, but also unpretentious. Grows in a greenhouse and in open ground. Fruits grow up to 15 cm in length. Crispy, juicy, without bitterness.
"Tom Thumb"
Hybrid, early ripening, very fruitful: one bush produces up to 20 fruits. Cucumbers grow 5-7 cm long. Very juicy, crispy and sweet.
"Ecole"
A hybrid that produces a bountiful harvest. Cucumbers grow 10-12 cm long, have few seeds, and have excellent taste. The plant is resistant to diseases.
"Cuckoo"
Hybrid. A consistently productive variety. The more often you pick the fruits, the higher the yield. The fruits are cylindrical, 12-15 cm long.
There is a drawback: you can’t keep cucumbers on the bushes for too long.
