Description
Bristol Cucumber is a hybrid, slicing cucumber variety known for its exceptional disease-resistance and perfectly-shaped fruits. It is an early-maturing variety that produces high yields of straight, dark-green, 8" slicing cucumbers. Plants are vigorous and have a nice balance of vegetative growth versus fruit production. This variety is known to produce a high percentage of straight, perfectly-shaped cucumbers.
Bristol Cucumber is a gynoecious variety, meaning it produces only female flowers. Because the fruits originate from the female flowers, the yield is very high. Each packet of Seeds contains 10-20% Seeds of a pollinator variety that is similar in shape and size to Bristol. The pollinator is an open-pollinated variety that provides the male flowers needed for pollination. As a result, we recommend planting the entire seed packet to ensure the male flowers are present for pollination.
