Cucumber bushes are formed powerful, with medium-sized foliage. According to the description, the Siberian garland cucumber has a dark green color and a length of no more than 8 cm, is covered with small tubercles and white spikes, slightly fluffy.

• vegetables have a sweet aftertaste and have a pronounced aroma, juicy and crispy, without voids, bitterness is absent,
• fruiting the Siberian species retains for a long period, until the appearance of frosts,
• the yield of cucumber crops shows equally stable, regardless of which varieties of soil to shine,
• the plant is resistant to the main range of diseases, including powdery mildew, cucumber mosaic, feathering and brown spotting,
• cucumber variety easily adapts to climate changes and tolerates temperature changes.

Siberian garland cucumbers are suitable for commercial use, for home use and for fresh consumption, with preserves and marinades.

Seed growing

Seeds of a hybrid variety of cucumbers Siberian garland marked f1 were obtained t manually crossed vegetable 2 self-pollinated varieties, are allocated such characteristics as maturity, flowering type, and resistance to major diseases. Its price is much higher than ordinary varietals.

The seeds of the hybrid Siberian variety f1 are sold already disinfected and hardened, ready for planting without additional preparatory procedures.

They begin to grow the Siberian hybrid seeds no earlier than April, approximately after On the 15th, with the expectation of 30 days for subsequent planting in a greenhouse or on unprotected soil. For a hybrid variety, soil equipped with humus, peat component, sawdust and turf soil mixed in equal proportions is suitable.

The seed is planted to a depth of 2 cm, lightly sprinkled with soil on top. The number of seeds planted in one container should not exceed one or two. Some gardeners try to save expensive seeds by planting one at a time, because the variety has high germination rates, reaching 95%.

Cultivation Rules

As with growing cucumbers of other varieties , It is recommended that the Siberian garland prepare open soil in advance by digging the soil in the fall and adding fertilizing mineral complexes and organics to it.

The main fertilizer for the soil when growing the cucumber variety Siberian garland becomes manure that has been lying for at least a year. Additionally, nitrate and superphosphates are added as bait.

For an early-ripening hybrid, an important factor when growing is the quality of seedlings, which becomes ready for transplantation into the ground after 3-4 leaves appear on a strong trunk. When planting soil in the soil, wood ash is put into the holes, and after the planting procedure, seedlings are immediately taken to fertilize with herbal or dung infusions.

Formation of bushes

The bush needs to be formed into a single stem

High yield when caring for cucumbers of the Siberian garland variety Bouquet type can be achieved by the correct formation in one stem. It allows cucumber bushes to withstand numerous fruits, provides the possibility of sunlight and provides cucumber ovaries with a uniform supply of nutrients.

When the cucumber bush grows at 2 m, pinch its top and fix it at the top of the trellis support, directing growth horizontally .

The pattern of forming cucumber bushes includes several main steps:

• the main stem is tied to a trellis support,
• flowers and shoots are cut, located in the first four axils from the ground, leaving only the leaves,
• in the middle of the bush is left on the stalk 2 of the ovary and 2 leaves, everything else is removed.

Harvesting

Experienced gardeners advise picking grown vegetables as often as possible: this gives the opportunity for the emergence of new ovaries and extends the fruiting period of the cucumber crop.

Growing in a greenhouse

To grow a hybrid variety in greenhouse conditions (planting in a heated greenhouse or a polycarbonate greenhouse), planting starts in April. By the time of planting, the temperature regime in the greenhouse should be set at 16 ° C to 18 ° C. Under such conditions, a quick emergence of crops can be expected.

On the day of sowing, the soil is moistened and loosened for oxygenation. The seed material is planted in holes at a distance of at least 0.4-0.5 m from each other.

Number of bushes per 1 sq.m. The sown area in the greenhouse should not exceed 2.

Fertilizing

For a hybrid hybrid, fertilizing is of no small importance. The plant is fertilized at different stages of development:

• when cucumber shoots appear at the initial stage, potassium is required, and gardeners either use ready-made mineral compounds or add organic matter with the addition of bird droppings in a ratio of 1 to 7, manure in a proportion 1 to 4, mixing superphosphate (15 g), ammonium nitrate (7 g), potassium sulfate (8 g),
• in the flowering process, boric acid is often used at the rate of 0.4 tsp.urea is involved in a 10-liter bucket of water,
• in the root bait at the stage of active growth, which requires 40 g per 10-liter water volume,
• nitrogen-containing fertilizers are among the active fertilizers at the fruiting stage and phosphorus-containing compounds.

Fertilizing the hybrid plant procedures are carried out after watering the cucumber bushes on warm rainy days.

Garter

When growing the Siberian garland in a greenhouse, it is imperative to use trellises for bunch cucumber crops, which become a support for the plant, making it easier for it to withstand a large number of ripening vegetables.

Cultivation in open ground

According to the description, when growing a hybrid on unprotected soil, it is important to obtain high the harvest from the Siberian garland becomes the right place. This variety prefers dark areas, so if there are no such dark places in the garden, you have to plant crops (corn) to protect from sunlight or create artificial protection.

Speed ​​up the process of growing seed material that is planted in open ground without seedlings way, allows it to be soaked for pre-germination.

Sowing work begins no earlier than the beginning – mid-May, and seedlings already grown are placed in the soil closer to its end. In the northern regions, the earth is insulated with manure or humus, laid to a depth of 0.3 m.

Feeding

Fertilization of the Siberian garland is carried out at different stages of development of cucumber culture and can be made according to the rules of bait when growing in a greenhouse.In unprotected soil, the risk of damage to a cucumber plant by diseases and pests increases. Against this, gardeners often use preventive spraying with ash and soap infusions (1 tbsp. L ash and 10 g of any soap per 20 l) or milk solutions (1 l of milk, 30 drops of iodine and 20 g of soap).

Formation

Formation for a bunch type hybrid hybrid is recommended when grown in unprotected soil, this is part of its maintenance. However, reviews of gardeners who prefer to save time claim that without the formation of cucumbers, too, good results are obtained.
