Description
The Bodoana cucumber is more precocious than Gundel and can therefore extend the harvest period, although in dry weather the harvest ends earlier without irrigation. It is also very healthy and copes excellently with drought and low fertilizer levels. The fruits are longer and heavier and look more like a classic “salad cucumber”. The taste is very fresh and balanced. The cucumber is ideal for salads and fresh consumption, but also works well in smoothies. The young plants are vigorous and have medium vigor.
