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. |
