Summary:The experiments were carried out in the years of 2000, 2001 and 2003 at Kafr El-Sheikh. The main objective of this research was to study the influence of growing seasons and types of unheated plastic house on yields of two cucumber F sub(1) hybrids. Downy mildew and powdery mildew were lower in the winter season than during the early summer season. Likewise, they were lower inside the double span house than inside the single span house (at 60 days after transplanting).The highest total yield as number and weight was produced from Petostar hybrid grown inside the double span house during the early summer season.
