The fruits of parthenocarpic varieties (some tomatoes and cucumbers, for instance) develop without pollination, so they do not require male flowers or insect pollinators. As a result of this, they also donβt form seeds. Parthenocarpic varieties should be grown in isolation from non-parthenocarpic types to ensure that no cross-pollination takes place. If it does, the parthenocarpic fruits may develop seeds.
3rd time buying these. Never had any issues. Good seeds, fast shipping, highly recommended!
This is hands down the best pickler Iβve ever, ever planted. I bought them initially from a fundraiser and was so pleased with the quality that Iβve already reordered for next year. They grow into a perfect size and even the odd one I missed grew larger but did not yellow as some picklers do if they remain on the vine. They also have very small seeds with lots of flesh. The spines are very sharp till you wash them and the body and flesh is firm, perfect for pickling. They are a deep green colour and look very appetizing in the jars.
