Cucumber Khabar is a variety that is popular among summer residents and owners of small farms. Excellent immunity, stable yield, excellent taste and decent presentation make it ideal for personal use and for sale.

Description of the variety

The bee-pollinated universal variety is intended for cultivation in the open field. The cold resistance of the culture allows it to feel good at temperatures from +5 degrees and above. In cooler regions, the variety can be grown in greenhouses. Productivity in such conditions is also excellent.

Characteristics of the appearance of plants and zelents

Indeterminate tall bushes cover medium-sized, slightly wrinkled, dark green leaves. The fruits are oblong-ovoid. The color of the large tuberous skin is green with light stripes and small rounded spots. Cucumbers can reach 10.7 cm in length. The average weight of one vegetable is 92-98 g. Experts estimate the marketability of fruits by 90%. They are very attractive, have a pleasant aroma, and look beautiful when preserved and cut.

Purpose and taste of fruits

The traditional cucumber taste without bitterness is perfect for salads. The tender pulp of canned and salted vegetables also generally gets rave reviews. The fruits are ideal for any culinary experiments, which is one of the main advantages of this variety.

Maturation

Cucumber Khabar is considered early. From the moment the first shoots appear until the beginning of fruiting, it usually takes 40-45 days.

Yield

From one square meter, you can get an average of about 3.9 kg of cucumbers of this variety. The fruiting period is long. At the same time, you can remove fresh vegetables from the bushes every day. The transportability of the crop is excellent, which is why this particular variety is often chosen for commercial breeding for the purpose of sale.

Growing regions

The cultivation of a cold-tolerant culture is possible practically throughout the country. The variety pleases with harvests in the North Caucasus, the Volga region, and the Urals. And also it is grown in the Far East, in Western and Eastern Siberia, in the central regions of Russia.

Growing and care

Cultivation of Khabar cucumber is possible both by direct sowing of seeds into the ground, and by seedling. The transfer of seedlings under the film is carried out in mid-May. The seeds are placed in open ground when the ground warms up to 15-20 ° C in the daytime and 8 ° C at night. Well-lit areas with fertile loose soil are preferred. Watering is done in the early morning or evening. The plants are fed several times. Organic matter is applied 2 weeks after the transfer of seedlings into the ground. Superphosphate is used during flowering. Before the beginning of fruiting, the soil is enriched with potassium.

And also we must not forget about the need for pollination. If a closed space (greenhouse) is chosen for cultivation, it is important to consider a method of attracting insects. For example, you can hang containers filled with sweet contents over the bushes. If for some reason there are very few bees, pollination should be carried out independently, using a brush or cotton swab to transfer pollen.

In order to collect strong, tasty and beautiful cucumbers on your site, you need to make top dressing. Lack of nutrients can negatively affect the appearance of the plant and significantly reduce the yield. Fertilize cucumbers with organic fertilizers in combination with mineral fertilizers. With the right balance of these components and adherence to the fertilizing schedule, the cucumber yield will be maximum.

Disease and pest resistance

The variety is resistant to bacteriosis and downy mildew. However, the bushes can be attacked by pests, for which professional or folk remedies are used. It is also possible the appearance of gray rot (due to high humidity or excess fertilizer). In this case, the culture is saved with Bordeaux liquid.

Despite their popularity, cucumbers are often attacked by diseases and pests. From them, cucumber plantings often die before the start of fruiting. In order to prevent this from happening, it is necessary to try to prevent ailments or get rid of them at the very beginning, having studied in detail their causes of occurrence, signs and methods of treatment.

Review overview

Everyone who is familiar with the Khabar variety cucumbers unanimously praise it for its excellent taste, rich harvest and unpretentious care. The variety shows itself equally well in film shelters and in open areas. Many summer residents get seedlings on their own from the seeds of ripe vegetables. At the same time, the result from sowing is always pleasing and makes us plant this particular type of culture again from year to year.
