Organic Gherkin Adam F1 is an early, vigorous variety and develops beautiful smooth fruits of 7 to 10 cm. The plants do not require pollination, making them perfect for growing in a greenhouse. Due to the firm, crunchy flesh, these gherkins are very suitable for preserving.
If the fruits are regularly picked at a young stage, new gherkins are constantly formed. The harvest can then extend over a longer period.

Additional fertilization is recommended after the first flowering. Repeat this after three weeks and if necessary do this again if there are signs of nitrogen deficiency. Yellowing and bronzing of the leaves may indicate potassium deficiency. If the fruits are regularly picked at a young stage, new gherkins are constantly formed. The harvest can then extend over a longer period.
