Organic Cucumber - Picolino F1
An F1 Hybrid is the result of hand pollination between two parent plants, resulting in a plant with better performance, pest and disease resistance bred into it through natural methods.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Sowing March to May, 20mm deep in 7cm pots or cells using multipurpose compost. Place in a propagator at 20 – 25C until germination, which takes up to 7 days.
Growing Transplant to individual 13cm pots and finally to large pots, or two plants per growbag, maintaining minimum 15C. Support plant with stout cane or netting. All female variety so each flower should produce a fruit. Rarely a male flower may appear (no embryo fruit adjoining the flower) which must be removed to avoid pollination and bitter fruits.
Harvesting June to October. Produces cucumbers around 12cm long.
