Cucumber 'Lisboa Parthenocarpic F1' (Cucumis sativus) – proposed by the seed company WH Perron
The 'Lisboa Parthenocarpic F1' cucumber is an early variety ideal for lovers of table cucumbers. Its internal cavity empty of seeds makes it particularly easy to digest. This parthenocarpic type does not require pollination to produce fruit, which guarantees an impressive yield, with up to two fruits per internode. To maintain its purity, it must be grown in isolation from other cucumber varieties.

Cultivation method:
Sow seeds indoors about 3 to 4 weeks before the last frost or directly in the open ground when the soil is well warmed. Plant seeds 2 to 3 cm deep, spacing plants 1 to 2 m apart, to encourage development and good air circulation. Use fertile, light, well-drained soil, and maintain constant moisture throughout the growing season.
For uniform fruit and efficient space management, grow plants on a trellis or vertical structure. Since Lisboa is a parthenocarpic variety, the fruit will not contain seeds, giving it a smoother texture and a mild, pleasant taste.
Harvest the fruits when they reach their optimum size of 18 cm, to preserve their crunch and flavour. Perfect for fresh salads or direct consumption, this cucumber will seduce you with its exceptional yield and superior quality.
Add the 'Lisboa Parthenocarpic F1' cucumber to your vegetable garden for a bountiful and tasty harvest, ideal for lovers of fresh and easy-to-digest vegetables.
