The paper presents the results of researches performed upon the use of bees in the seed production processes at 3 cornichon type hybrids (Cornisa F1, Cornibac F1, and Cornirom F1). The results shows a very high efficiency of honey bees in pollination of cucumber flowers, resulting in an increase of seed quantities per fruit ranging from 150% (Cornirom F1) to 214,1% (Cornisa F1), as compared to manual pollination.
