CUCUMBER SEEDS
Due to the US
Postal Service practice of irradiating packages, Hydro-Gardens will
not guarantee any seeds sent by the US Mail. This practice will
sterilize the seeds and they will not germinate.
We will still send your order by US Mail but if they do not
germinate, they will not be replaced.
| These cucumber F1 hybrid varieties are produced in Holland. They should be
pruned when grown in a greenhouse. Our technical manual (Item # 9P097) offers tips on
their culture and pruning technique. F1 hybrids are produced in a greenhouse. The pollen
from one parent is manually transferred to the second parent. The seed from this parent
plant is the F1 hybrid you are purchasing. As compared to field cucumbers, these varieties
are very thin skinned and seedless. They are usually referred to as "European"
or "Seedless", and are bitter free. Therefore you do not need to peel the skin
off these cucumbers. They are an all female or mostly female plant: Each blossom, if
properly cared for, will become a cucumber. The germination rate for these varieties is
95% to 100% when germinated properly. |

JAWELL
(mini-cucumber)
Jawell is suitable for the year-round culture of
mini-cucumbers. Jawell is partially resistant to real mildew
and is necrosis-free. As a result, Jawell is extremely
suitable for cultures with an early sowing time (low-light
periods) and for cultures where at least real mildew must be
combatted. The growth of the main stem and the side shoots
is of average vigour. With generative growth control, 1 or 2
fruits develop per axil. The plant remains very well
balanced in generative culture, leading to high, uniform
production. Jawell’s fruits are an attractive dark colour,
shiny and very uniform. The length is about 14-16 cm and the
average weight 100 gram. |
