But to understand whether such a crop is needed in the garden, you should get acquainted with the characteristic features, rules of cultivation and care.

Bobrik pimpled cucumbers remain crispy and elastic for a long time

Description of cucumbers Bobrik F1

The hybrid cucumber Bobrik, which was presented to the Russians by the domestic company Gavrish, is a tall vine. The length of the main vine can reach 3.5 m. The branching is average, the bush is sparse and not sparse. The leaves are small, bright green. The surface of the plate is wrinkled. The plant has a powerful root system, lateral shoots are formed moderately.

Important! Thanks to this arrangement of branches and leaves, the Bobrik hybrid bush is well lit and air circulates freely.

Flowering is abundant, female type. The formation of fruits does not require the presence of insects, since the hybrid is self-pollinating. This is why Bobrik cucumber can be grown even on the balcony. In place of the bright yellow flowers, several ovaries are formed, reminiscent of a bouquet. As a rule, up to 5-6 small cucumbers are formed in one internode.

The fruits are cylindrical, about 13 cm long. Dark green, with large whitish stripes. The thin skin has many tubercles and small light thorns, but they are not prickly, but soft. Early ripening Bobrik cucumbers are distinguished by dense, juicy and elastic pulp. Crispy, aromatic fruits with an excellent sweetish taste do not form voids. There is no bitterness observed in Bobrik cucumbers.

The culinary purpose is quite wide: pickling and canning, for fresh salads and for the winter. They can be frozen by cutting them into thin slices. Cucumbers do not lose their taste and beneficial properties.

Bobrik cucumbers do not grow rough, as they have slow growth, which is very pleasing to summer residents who cannot often come to the site.

Possible diseases and how to combat them

Hybrid Bobrik f1 has strong immunity to major crop diseases. However, improper care of plants leads to infection of bushes with pathologies such as bacteriosis, cladosporiosis and root rot.

Bacteriosis

Bacteriosis is an infection in which the leaves of the bushes become covered with angular spots of a brown tint, which, as a result of the increased level of humidity, acquire an oily consistency. Also, bacteriosis contributes to the formation of yellow mucus on the leaves. Ulcers form on cucumbers, which are filled with a cloudy liquid. To combat bacteriosis, the substances “Kuproksat” or “Champion” are used.

Cladosporiosis

Cladosporiosis is a pathology as a result of which the fruits become covered with ulcers, the level of yield decreases, and the leaves of the plant become covered with light brown spots and begin to wither and curl. For prevention, Beaver bushes are treated with the substance “Oxychom” or Bordeaux solution.

Root rot

Root rot is a disease that affects the plant in patches. The first signs of a plant becoming infected with root rot are wilting of the foliage, weakening of the root system and stem of the plant. In addition, the stem takes on a dark color, becomes soft and cracks. It is necessary to treat Bobrik f1 bushes with Previkur, Alirin-B or Gamair substances.

Advantages and disadvantages

Any garden crop has advantages and disadvantages. They also pay attention when choosing a variety. Gardeners who have been growing Bobrik cucumbers for many years completely agree with the description given by the breeders. The hybrid has many advantages:

  1. Bobrik cucumber is a high-yielding crop. Recoil is good in a variety of conditions.
  2. The fruits are attractive not only in appearance, but also have excellent taste.
  3. Early ripening (up to 45 days) is another significant plus.
  4. Female flowers appear at each internode.
  5. The cluster shape of the ovaries allows you to get a large number of cucumbers.
  6. The hybrid is self-pollinating, fruits are set without the participation of bees.
  7. Flowering is long, so cucumbers can be harvested throughout the growing season.
  8. Can be grown in open and protected ground, even in Siberia.
  9. Attractive appearance. The fruits are dense and do not fade for a long time.
  10. Bobrik cucumbers are stress-resistant and can withstand temperature changes without much damage or reduction in yield.
  11. It can be grown not only in the sun, but also in partial shade.
  12. Cucumbers retain their presentation during long-term transportation.
  13. Universal culinary use.
  14. Resistance to many crop diseases.

Gardeners growing Bobrik cucumbers did not highlight the disadvantages of the hybrid. An insignificant disadvantage is that it is impossible to obtain your own seeds.

Harvest and storage

Bobrik is harvested as the fruits ripen. If the cucumbers are not picked in a timely manner, the gherkins of the variety do not begin to outgrow, do not lose their taste characteristics, do not turn yellow and do not begin to become coarse. Store hybrid cucumbers in cool rooms where the air temperature does not exceed 4 degrees. As a rule, a cellar or basement is chosen to store the fruits of the variety.

Planting Bobrik cucumbers

Bobrik cucumbers are grown throughout Russia. But due to the climate, not only planting methods will be different, but also plant placement options. In the southern regions, where summers are long, the hybrid is most often grown in open ground. In the northern regions, it is preferable to plant cucumbers in a greenhouse.


In a greenhouse, the yield is higher, and cucumbers can be obtained earlier

Regardless of whether the ground is open or protected, growing cucumbers must begin with preparing the soil. If they have to be placed in a garden bed, it must be protected from drafts. Humus and wood ash are added to the soil and dug up. All roots are removed.

Advice! Cucumbers love fresh manure; experienced gardeners recommend adding this organic matter to the soil.

The Bobrik cucumber is grown not only by seeds, but also by seedlings.

Seedling method

The seedling method allows you to get an early harvest of crispy and healthy fruits. When sowing seeds for seedlings, you should take into account the timing when the cucumbers can be transplanted to a permanent place - in a greenhouse or open ground.

If seedlings are placed in beds, this happens, for example, in the northern regions, in the second half of June. This means that the seeds need to be sown three weeks before planting.

Planting material is placed in small containers containing two seeds. Then the strongest sprout is left. To prevent the seedlings from stretching, they are placed on a lighted windowsill. Add soil every three days to get additional roots. This procedure is also aimed at obtaining stocky seedlings.

Warning! If Bobrik cucumber seedlings do not have enough light, you need to connect a phytolamp.

If plants are planted outside, do so only after the threat of return frosts has passed. But at night it would be better to cover the plants. There is no need to deepen the seedlings. It’s better to hill up a little later. Bobrik cucumbers are planted in a greenhouse, if it is not heated, in Siberian conditions after May 15.

Seedlings should be planted in a greenhouse at a distance of about 50 cm. If the bed is wide, then in a checkerboard pattern.


Bobrik cucumber seedlings are considered high quality if they have 3-4 leaves and a height of 15-20 cm

Sowing in open ground

Seeds are planted in open ground when the soil warms up to 15-18 °C. This is mid-June in the northern regions. To stimulate seedlings, plantings must be closed at night. It doesn’t hurt to do this when cucumber sprouts appear. The seeds of the Bobrik hybrid are placed in holes according to a 50x50 pattern. In the future, plants will not interfere with each other.

Humus should be added to the hole and the soil should be poured well. Experienced gardeners recommend pouring boiling water with the addition of potassium permanganate over them.

Advice! After planting seedlings and sowing seeds, it is advisable to dust the soil with a mixture of red and black pepper. And then break the shells of chicken eggs and sprinkle thickly on the hole with cucumbers.

If Aunt Lyuba said she will grow up, then she will grow up. And period.

What do unscrupulous seed sellers come up with? And they put the wrong seeds in orders and store them, I don’t understand how. As a result, gardeners are left without seedlings. But not with us. Because Aunt Lyuba has raised reliable guarantees for her customers.

And in order for us, gardeners, to perceive guarantees more familiarly, we depicted them in the form of a flower.

Return Policy:

Within 30 days after making a purchase, if you don’t like anything about the product, we will refund your money. To request a return, call or email

Note! Delivery fees are non-refundable!

Now let's take a closer look:

We guarantee that you will receive exactly what you ordered

It often happens that a buyer places an order that consists of a large number of different seeds. And if something is out of stock, many stores replace the seeds they need with something else. Well, don’t lose the order because of a trifle.

At Aunt’s Garden there is an ironclad rule: what is on the website is in stock. That is, you will receive exactly what you ordered. No more, no less.

In case of violation of the guarantee, we pay a penalty for each error in the order. That is, we bear direct financial responsibility to you.

(and Aunt Lyuba will sprinkle us with a rod of freshly grown nettles)

We guarantee that the seeds will not expire

Another common problem with buying seeds is that they are late. “Just think, they’ve been lying around for another day, but they’re still dry,” this is how unscrupulous sellers reason.

“Tetinoy Sad” sells only those seeds that have at least 6 months until their expiration date.

We break the rule - we pay penalties for each day of delay. (and no one canceled the rod)

At the Tetiny Sad warehouse, special conditions have been created for storing seeds of various types. You can be sure that germination will remain at the maximum level.

Caring for Bobrik cucumbers

Caring for Bobrik cucumbers is no more difficult than caring for other representatives of the crop. The rules of agricultural technology are almost the same. But there are still some differences. In this case, tasty and aromatic fruits of universal use will grow.

Bush formation

Bobrik cucumbers can be grown in beds, barrels, and greenhouses. Regardless of the place where the plants will be planted, they need to be pinched when 6-7 leaves appear. This is a kind of stimulus for the branching of the Bobrik cucumber and the key to a rich harvest.

In the greenhouse, the plants are tied up, not only the main stem, but also the side branches, because it is not so easy for a cucumber to sustain clusters with 5-6, and sometimes more, ovaries. In open ground, if Beaver grows in a place protected from the wind, you can grow bushes on a trellis.

Each hybrid bush needs to cut off 4-5 lower leaves. This is important for air circulation.

Features of watering

Because the yield is abundant, the plants require large amounts of water. Watering is carried out after three days. More often in particularly dry seasons. The top layer of soil should not dry out, but stagnation should not be allowed either - the roots do not tolerate this. In hot weather, spraying is recommended. The water should be warm.

Advice! If it is not possible to visit the dacha often, you need to install adjustable drip irrigation for Bobrik cucumbers.

Top dressing

Abundant fruiting quickly depletes the soil. Therefore, from the moment of flowering, Bobrik cucumbers need to be fed. During the season, 3-4 recharges are performed. It is fashionable to use minerals and organic matter - it all depends on the preferences of gardeners. Cucumbers respond well to feeding with mullein, infusion of fermented grass, and wood ash.

Bobrik cucumbers are harvested as they ripen. You can store the fruits for several days in the refrigerator or other cool, dark place.


Cucumbers do not turn yellow or become rough, they fully retain their beneficial properties and presentation.

Care methods

Caring for the Bobrik f1 variety is the main activity during the growing period of cucumbers, since it is agrotechnical procedures that ensure tasty and beautiful fruits.

Watering

It is recommended to water plantings with cucumbers every 3 days. All watering is carried out with warm liquid under the roots of the bushes. It is recommended to spray cucumbers periodically. Spraying is especially necessary in sultry heat.

Top dressing

Feed the soil from the moment the bushes begin to bloom. For the first feeding, minerals are chosen. The second feeding is carried out after 3 weeks with organic components. For the third feeding, the time is chosen during the period of formation and maturation of the gherkins. Cucumbers are fed with nutritional components and complex preparations.

Since Beaver reaches large sizes, the main stem of the plant is tied to a vertical or horizontal support. To form bushes, you need to trim 4-5 lower leaves.

Features of Siberian selection

In the harsh climate of the Siberian region, it is not easy to grow a good harvest. This is especially true for heat-loving crops (cucumbers, pumpkins, zucchini). But breeders are constantly developing new varieties and hybrids that grow even in the most unfavorable conditions. Siberian cucumbers are famous for their unpretentiousness and disease resistance. The developments of breeders make it possible to harvest a rich harvest of cucumbers even in the Urals. Cucumbers of Siberian selection are also popular in central Russia. By giving preference to such seed, gardeners have the opportunity to reduce all risks to a minimum.

Advantages of cucumbers of Siberian selection

The specific climate of the Urals, Siberia, and the Far East determines the areas of work of local breeders. All the efforts of specialists are aimed at breeding varieties and hybrids that will produce an excellent harvest even in unfavorable conditions. The undeniable advantages of cucumbers of Siberian selection are:

early ripening (cucumbers should produce the main harvest in short summer conditions); resistance to temperature changes; disease resistance; tendency to parthenocarpy (cucumbers are capable of self-pollination, which is important in the northern regions, since bees pollinate crops poorly); the friendly response of the greenies; high yield. There are also significant differences between the varieties and hybrids of Siberian selection

Garden websites provide descriptions with photos for varieties

Despite the growing popularity of hybrids, agricultural companies selling seeds of Siberian selection also have good bee-pollinated varieties in their catalogs

Disadvantages of cucumbers of Siberian selection

The varieties and hybrids of Siberian selection have many advantages, but they also have disadvantages. The main disadvantages include:

  • difficulties in purchasing seeds (not all companies offer customers cucumbers of Siberian selection);
  • high cost of seeds;
  • inability to collect seeds yourself.

Modern hybrids are obtained by cross-pollination of two varieties. To remove them you need to do some work. At experimental sites, the desired varieties are planted side by side in greenhouses, pollinated by hand, and then protective bags are placed on the plants to prevent cross-pollination. Fruits with specified characteristics are obtained. But the seeds can be used as planting material only for the next year. Collecting seeds from the second year's harvest can be considered pointless, since all the characteristics of the hybrid will be lost.

Zyatek F1

“Zyatek” is the result of Russian selection, entered into the State Register of the Russian Federation in 2007 and recommended for cultivation on protected ground. The best yield indicators are shown in the south of Russia - in the Stavropol, Krasnodar Territories and Rostov Region.
