Carmen F1 is a high-yielding, all-female cucumber variety bred for reliable, bitter-free harvests and strong disease resistance. Ideal for greenhouse growing—or outdoor plots in warm, sheltered spots—this hybrid produces long, elegant fruits with a superb crunch and flavour. Its resistance to powdery mildew and scab makes it a go-to choice for gardeners seeking quality with fewer worries.
Sow from late February indoors or late April outdoors. Support with vertical ties and harvest regularly from June onwards to keep fruiting steady.
