Description:
Bred by Michael Mazourek at Cornell University, DMR 401 is a standard slicing cucumber with excellent downy mildew resistance. The foliage will resist downy mildew pressure at levels that kill almost any other slicing cucumber plant. Earlier and more productive than its parent, DMR 264. Fruits average 8 inches. In 2014 and 2015 at Twin Oaks Seed Farm we trialed a number of downy mildew resistant cucumber breeding lines from Cornell - this one stood out, and we were the first to release it in 2017. It has done well in a number of trials since - see "Evaluation of Cucumber Varieties Resistant to Downy Mildew" by Margaret McGrath. DMR 401 is susceptible to dry conditions, which can lead to misshapen fruits - so make sure to give it plenty of water. 35 seeds per gram. Grown at Twin Oaks Seed Farm.
