These are the CUCUMBERS HEROE varieties:
CORINTO and THRIUMP F1 I bought from Johnny's.
They are both parthenocarpic variety, which they are my favorite because they perform so good in the TX heat of our summer.
Since they don't need pollination it seems that they don't get stressed by the heat ... just my humble opinion.
Now I found out that they are COLD resistant ! They have both been outside since March 15th, with no protection.
These partenocarphic seeds are more expensive, but they produce a lot and they are resistant to heat and diseases.
Judge yourself in these pictures. Corinto is the one with the little cucumber already ... by the way this cucumber grew 1/2" from yesterday.
