The aim of this study was to determine the influence of foliar fertilizers, applied individually or in combination, on production characteristics and the production of pickled cucumbers grown in solarium, but also the combined effect of the two factors studied. The biological material studied was represented by two cucumber hybrids, SV 9007 and Kybria, and 3 fertilizers, Cropmax, Fury and Auxym. The study was placed according to the experimental technique for bifactorial experiments. The observations highlighted that the Kybria hybrid achieved the highest total production (80.2 t/ha) while the SV-9007 hybrid had the best production of 1st quality fruit, i.e. 65.6 t/ha of the total production of 72.8 t/ ha. The fertilizer product with the strongest influence on production and production parameters was Auxym, followed by Furia. However, the combination of the two products (Auxym + Furia) had the greatest influence on production in terms of quantity and quality. The results support the cultivation of cornichon cucumbers, the hybrid SV-9007 F1 and the application of the fertilization products Furia and Auxym in combination, during vegetation.
