Abstract
Experiment was conducted to screen cucumber hybrids for fruit yield and physical quality parameters under polyhouse environment. Seeds of four parthenocarpic cucumber hybrids were sown using plastic pro-trays technique in the month of December during both the years. Seedlings were raised under naturally ventilated poly-tunnels. Seedlings were transplanted in the mid of January. Transplanted seedlings were irrigated through drip irrigation mode. Plants were trained vertically upward using jute thread after pruning and pinching of axiliary branches. Maximum fruit yield was recorded from Hilton (22.8 kg/sq. m), followed by NVH-2-26 (20.5 kg/ sq. m) and Isatis (21.2 kg/ sq. m), which were at par with each other. However, minimum fruit yield was noticed from Phule Prachi (16.1 kg/ sq. m). Fruits had better quality being parthenocarpic in nature than Phule Prachi when grown in polyhouse.
