Poona Kheera Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) is an unusual and highly adaptable heirloom cucumber variety originating from India. Unlike traditional cucumbers, this variety starts off with smooth, pale green skin that gradually ripens to a golden-brown, russet-like color as it matures. The fruits are typically 4 to 6 inches long and have a crisp, juicy texture with a mild, refreshing flavor that holds well even in hot weather. Unlike many cucumbers that turn bitter under stress, Poona Kheera maintains its excellent taste and crunch throughout the growing season, making it a resilient and reliable choice for gardeners.
Thriving in warm climates, Poona Kheera Cucumber grows on vigorous, sprawling vines that produce an abundance of fruit over an extended period. It performs best in full sun with well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and benefits from trellising to keep the fruits clean and evenly shaped. This variety is highly resistant to drought and thrives in high heat, making it particularly well-suited for regions with long, dry summers. Whether eaten fresh, sliced into salads, or pickled, Poona Kheera offers a unique combination of visual appeal, strong performance, and excellent flavor, making it a standout choice for home gardeners and specialty growers alike.
