It is difficult to find a garden plot where cucumbers do not grow. And this is quite understandable!
You can enjoy fresh, juicy vegetables all summer long, and make a delicious snack for the winter, without which no feast can do.
Breeders have developed special varieties that retain tender flesh and a crispy crust even after heat treatment.
One of the best varieties for pickling is considered to be "Rodnichok". This hybrid was created many years ago, but still remains one of the most popular with summer residents. It was specially created for growing in open ground.
It is loved for its unpretentiousness and high yield. And its juicy, dense and sweet pulp has almost no bitterness, and the thin skin is covered with small dark green thorns.
If the housewife does not care about the small size of the cucumber in the jar, then you will not find a better variety than "Zozulya". This sweet aromatic vegetable is equally good both fresh and salted, and the snack turns out crispy and very tasty. The cucumber has a thin smooth skin and soft juicy pulp.
"Zhuravlenok" was created by Russian scientists several years ago and quickly gained popularity among gardeners. The cucumber's flesh is crispy and sweet, the skin is thin.
The vegetable is resistant to many diseases, easy to care for, and has a long fruiting period. The plant tolerates cold weather, transportation, and storage well.
The mid-season variety "Zasolochny" was created especially for pickling. The cucumber has sweetish flesh with small seeds and thin skin. It tolerates transportation well, is stored for a long time and "behaves" well in a jar. The plant is resistant to common diseases, and the yield is above average.
The cucumber variety "Liliput" begins to bear fruit early if it is grown in a greenhouse or on a balcony. These small gherkins have tender flesh and a dense, slightly prickly skin.
This type has proven itself as a pickling cucumber. The plant is resistant to a number of diseases, keeps well and has a high marketable appearance.
Despite the fact that cucumbers have an average yield, summer residents are very happy to grow them on their plots.
What could be tastier than crispy cucumbers, especially those grown in your own garden! To make cucumbers crispy, you need to choose varieties that are bred specifically for pickling.
