If you want to eat cucumbers from June to autumn, choose “Garland”! I tried so many different varieties, but this one was especially impressive in terms of yield and fruiting time. I fed her as usual, with various organics. Plus BioGrow growth activator. Even the traditional disease for our area - powdery mildew - did not affect this variety.

Features of planting and caring for cucumbers Garland F1

The quantity and quality of the harvest depends on the fulfillment of the conditions for planting a self-pollinating hybrid and caring for it.

Garland F1 is designed for growing in greenhouses; the plant develops well in shade and does not require pollination. Therefore, vegetable growers often grow the variety on balconies and window sills.

• The early harvest is obtained by seedling method, the seeds are sown at the end of April to a depth of 1-2 cm. The seedlings are planted in the greenhouse in late May - early June, when 3-4 leaves are formed on the seedlings.
• It is possible to sow seeds directly into the garden bed, which is carried out in late May - early June. The seeds do not need to be soaked before planting, as they are prepared by the manufacturer for planting and are enclosed in a nutritious, protective shell.
• To obtain a high-quality harvest, the soil must be fertile and fertilized with organic matter. Air temperature – minimum +16° C.
• The scheme for planting a hybrid in a greenhouse is 30 cm x 70 cm.

• The hybrid is tall, so Garland F 1 is tied to a trellis.
• Watering should be regular and sufficient. This will allow the plants to yield their harvest together.
• Fertilizing is necessary once every 2 weeks with complex fertilizer, potassium humate. An infusion of wood ash is suitable as an organic fertilizer.
• Greens must be collected regularly, which will increase productivity.
• Forming a plant into 1 stem involves removing all flowers and side shoots that form in the axils of the lower 3-5 leaves. Next, you need to remove all the shoots that grow from the axils and leave the ovaries.

Reviews from gardeners

Margarita, 37 years old, Leningrad region

I like to plant different varieties of cucumbers and tomatoes in the greenhouse to try all the new items and choose the best options. This year I planted the hybrid Garland F1 and am very pleased with it. Beautiful shoots with large dark green leaves, as in the photo, a rich, tasty harvest, strong immunity to diseases and a minimum of care... I recommend it to everyone!

Leonid, 46 years old, Smolensk region

I like to stick to the old, time-tested varieties, but Garland F1 was so praised that I decided to give it a try. And I didn’t regret it! The variety from Russian breeders has grown excellent. After harvesting the harvest and salting it, I can safely say that the hybrid has no shortcomings at all. Unless the fruits need to be collected every day, but this did not bother me at all. I think that soon this variety will become one of the most famous. I recommend!

Evgeny Kozlov, Achinsk

The variety attracted my attention because it is ultra-early. It is written in the description that after 45 days you can already harvest the first harvest. This is very similar to the truth. Now a month has passed since planting and the cucumbers are planning to bloom! Pleasantly surprised.
