Cucumber (cucumis sativus)
Cucumbers have a high water and low calorie content. They also have a high content of ascorbic acid, vitamins and minerals (calcium, chloride, potassium, iron and nickel in particular).
We grow the Almería long cucumber variety. It is 26 to 41 cm long, gentle green, and does not have pricks in its skin. It has a mild flavour and is more digestible than other types of cucumber. The seeds are hardly noticeable.
The cucumber should not have any flowers. Maximum stem length is 1 cm, and it should never be levelled off with the skin.
Now have 80% of the cultivated area of this product under biological pest control.
