Cucumber : Tiffany F1. Hybrid (All Female)

Vegetable

Description

A vigorous plant habit, producing many long, dark green skinned, slightly ribbed, bitter free fruits 28-35cm (11-14in) long, throughout the season. Its vigorous habit makes it ideal for growing in an unheated glasshouse, but is equally at home in a heated one for a very early crop. Excellent powdery mildew tolerance.

Sowing Instructions

Sowing time:late winter onwards.
Sowing depth:1cm (½in)

Sow singly in 7.5cm (3in) pots of moist compost. Germination usually takes 7-10 days at 24-27C (75-80F).

Growing Instructions

Transplant at the 2-3 leaf stage into 13cm (5in) pots and then into growbags, border or 23-25cm (9-10in) pots, spacing them 46cm (18in) apart or 2-3 per growbag. Provide a minimum temperature of 15C (60F). Train up the main shoot to top of wire and then pinch out the growing point and allow two shoots to trail downwards. Keep moist but not wet, apply shading as required and provide a moist, warm atmosphere.

Aftercare Instructions

Regular picking will encourage fruiting. Under stress conditions, male flowers may be produced and these should be removed.
