Overview
Early Triumph is an F1 hybrid slicing cucumber from Petoseed Co., released in 1980. The plants are monoecious, so they carry both male and female flowers and need no separate pollinator. Fruits are dark green, blocky, and smooth with a small seed cavity, which makes for crisp slices with little waste. Vines are vigorous and medium in size. The strength of this variety is its broad disease package: it resists scab, anthracnose, powdery mildew, downy mildew, and cucumber mosaic virus, which covers most of the troubles that end a cucumber planting early. Harvest begins around 60 days from sowing. It was bred for wide adaptation and is a sound pick for gardeners in humid regions where mildews hit hard.
