Abstract
The research was conducted during the Summer-Autumn season of 2024 at College of Agricultural, Can Tho University, aiming to identify parthenocarpy cucumber varieties with good growth and high yield when grown using static hydroponics under greenhouse in the Mekong Delta. The experiment was designed completely randomly, including 5 treatments corresponding to 5 varieties and 6 replications, with 5 parthenocarpy cucumber varieties used in the experiment were Kichi, Cengel, Maya, Fengyan, and Sugoy. The results indicated that the Kichi, Fengyan, and Maya varieties showed good adaptation with the highest fruit yield per plant being 1,68, 1,64, and 1,54 kg/plant, respectively. The Fengyan variety recorded the highest stem length, leaf length, leaf width, root diameter, and fruit weight. The highest number of fruits harvested per plant was observed in the Maya, Cengel, and Kichi varieties, with 23,8; 21,7, and 20,0 fruits/plant, respectively. In general, five parthenocarpy cucumber varieties used in the experiment can be successfully cultivated using static hydroponics in greenhouse.
