Among the many existing varieties and hybrids of cucumbers, each of us chooses the most suitable for ourselves, guided by a certain set of requirements. Some want to get cucumbers as early as possible, so they sow early varieties of cucumbers. The second is more important than the taste of the fruit, the third – the longest possible period of their fruiting. But, perhaps, productivity is considered common to all and one of the main requirements. That’s just the most fruitful cucumber hybrids we will discuss today.
Harvest varieties of cucumbers are always popular
About some varieties and hybrids of cucumbers, which can be safely ranked among the most fruitful, we have already talked about in the article 25 of the earliest varieties of cucumbers:
- ‘Altai early 166’;
- ‘Muromsky 36’;
- ‘Zozulya’;
- ‘May F1’;
- ‘Spring F1’;
- ‘April F1’;
- ‘Moscow dude F1’;
- ‘Advance F1’.
It makes no sense to describe the advantages of each of them again, so today let’s remember a few more hybrids with which you definitely will not be left without a harvest.

The fruit is genetically devoid of bitterness, large-tuberous, dark green, elongated-cylindrical greens, reaching 8-9 cm in length with a weight of up to 100 g. About 1-11 kg of fruits are obtained from 13 mΒ².
2. ‘White Night F1’
