Abstract: An experiment was carried out to evaluate performances of 18 parthenocarpic cucumber hybrids harvested from shade net house at Vegetable Research Block, Department of Vegetable Science, College of Horticulture, Kolar during 2017-2018 for physico and biochemical characters (total soluble solids, physiological loss in weight, dry weight of fruit, ash content titrable acidity and ascorbic acid). The results indicated a significant difference in all the quality parameters studied. The highest TSS content was documented in Defense (4.50 0B). After one week of storage, the minimum physiological loss in weight was recorded in the hybrid Sargon (15.85 %). The maximum dry weight of fruit was observed in Defense (5.76 g). The highest titrable acidity and ascorbic acid content were noticed in the hybrid Borja (0.31 mg/100g, 2.00 mg/100g, respectively).
