Cucumber - Mini salad cucumber 'Pony H'

Cucumber (Mini-salad cucumber) 'Pony H'
Cucumis sativus L.
Contents: about 10 seeds

'Pony H' is a very early and high-yielding F1 hybrid of mini salad cucumber. The variety is self-pollinating and is excellent for growing in pots on the balcony, in greenhouses or under plastic. The smooth, dark green fruits are 12–14 cm long and weigh 100–190 g. They are completely free of bitterness, have a nice crispness and can be harvested as early as 10 cm for extra crispiness.

This hybrid is resistant to several diseases, including cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), powdery mildew, and scab (Ccu).

Culture:
Sow 1–2 seeds per pot at a germination temperature of 27–28 °C. Thin to the strongest plant and transplant to a permanent location. The plants develop in 25–30 days and need extra light when sown early in February. 1–2 plants per m² will yield up to 35–45 kg under favourable conditions.
