Probably, it is impossible to find such a garden or garden area on which at least a tiny piece of land was not allocated for the cultivation of cucumbers. This fragrant, tasty and healthy vegetable is present on our tables all year round. Someone from the summer residents has already chosen his only variety, in which they are satisfied with everything - the yield, taste, the possibility of transportation and canning. Others are still in search. For them, we today want to introduce a variety Artist. Cucumber hybrid, early maturing.

The plant has a developed root system, which makes it fairly easy to tolerate drought. After the transferred drying it is restored very quickly. It needs well-lit areas of the earth, but it also tolerates partial shade. Fruits all summer long.

Fruits of medium size, uniform, even, covered with large tubercles. Peel thin dark green color. They differ in small seed chambers. Up to eight cucumbers appear on one node. Seed chambers are small. The Artist does not have the characteristic of many bitterness varieties. Cucumber is resistant to disease with olive spotting and powdery mildew. Suitable for canning. Variety is yielding - from one square meter of the earth with competent care, you can shoot up to 10 kg of cucumbers.

Soil Preparation

The actor is a cucumber who loves light, loose fertile soil and abundant watering. But the drafts are extremely negative. Loose soil should be fertilized slightly before planting. To do this, a mixture of soil and organic fertilizers is introduced into the planting hole depth of 40 cm. The top is covered with a furrow with a layer of soil into which seeds will be sown or seedlings planted.

Create a garden

It should be noted that the Artist is a cucumber, which does not coexist with all the neighboring cultures growing up. Preparing a bed for planting, it should be taken into account. For example, sweet corn well shades the leaves and roots of bushes from the scorching sun rays. The same affects the plant and legumes. Very favorable neighborhood with dill. Suits these cucumbers and the neighborhood with garlic, onions, salads, cabbage.

Sowing

Of course, it is easier to plant the purchased seedlings of cucumbers, but the Artist is a cucumber, which is rather easy to grow from seeds. Sowing is carried out in spring with stable positive temperatures, in shallow, moist grooves at a distance of not less than six centimeters. Seeds should be laid in furrows with a spout down at an angle of 45 degrees. From above the crop is covered with a layer of mulch (not less than 3 cm). It is necessary to preserve moisture, warm young shoots.

Cultivation of cucumbers

When the seedlings have the first two true leaves, you can do the thinning. The bushes should grow at a distance of 15 cm. They must be dug in order to prevent the development of diseases that can develop when moisture enters the base of the stem.

Watering

Cucumber likes moisture. Especially, he needs it when there are ovaries and fruits. The plant can react to insufficient watering by stopping fruiting, changing the taste of the fruit.

But this does not mean that cucumbers should be poured cold water from a hose. Such a "shower" will plunge the plant into a shock state, it will weaken and fall ill with gray rot. The remaining fruits will be "waist".

Cucumbers should be watered under the root. Do this carefully so that the water does not fall on the leaves. Water should be warm, heated in the sun.

Harvesting

Should be carried out regularly, as the fruits not picked up in time outgrow and lose their presentation. It is better to collect cucumbers every day, or at least every other day.
