Fontan

Fontain cucumber is an early-maturing parthenocarpic hybrid of cornichon type, distinguished by high yield and excellent fruit quality. The period from germination to fruiting begins at 38-42 days, allowing for fresh cucumbers to be harvested within a short time after planting. Fruits are 8-11 cm long, large-bump, white-tipped, with dense, crisp flesh free of bitterness. Each fruit weighs up to 100 grams, and their rich green color makes them attractive to consumers.

This variety is ideal for cultivation both in plastic greenhouses and in open ground, making it a versatile choice for gardeners and farmers. Fontain cucumber is recommended for fresh consumption, and also excellent for pickling and marinating due to its flavor and dense fruit structure.

The hybrid exhibits high resistance to major cucumber diseases such as cucumber mosaic virus and olive spot, and is tolerant to powdery mildew and downy mildew. These traits significantly simplify plant care and contribute to a stable yield even under adverse conditions.
