Origin and description of the variety

Pink Table Grapes Original, photo of whichis presented below, was withdrawn by Ukrainian breeders by crossing two parental forms: Damascus Rose and Datieu de Saint-Valle. From them, the variety inherited a large size of egg-shaped or nipple-shaped berries, the mass of which reaches 5-7 g. Grapes grape variety The original forms large. Under good growth conditions, they can reach one and a half kilograms, but in most cases their weight is 500-700 g.

Grapes Features Original

Unlike most varieties, grapesThe original, the description of which was given earlier, perfectly tolerates winter cold to 22 degrees and the next year gives a good harvest. That is why this variety has become widespread not only in the southern regions of Ukraine, but also in most regions of Russia. It is recommended that you cover it. Among the main advantages of the variety, its high resistance to fungal diseases is also indicated.

Fans prefer to grow a grape varietyThe original is because it has a bisexual flower. This means that for successful fruiting there is no need to grow other varieties of grapes near it. In addition, high yield allows to grow only one plant on the site to provide a small family with fresh berries and billets from them.

Despite the listed advantages, grapesThe original has several drawbacks. For example, the clusters of this variety do not tolerate transportation very well. Berries are easily separated from the pedicels, so even with a brief shaking, the bunches remain almost completely bared.

Subtlety of cultivation

Planting grapes can be done both in spring and in spring.autumn time. Grapes do not like a draft, but it does not tolerate the stagnation of air. The place of growth of the vine should be in the sun for a long time, so it is better to plant grapes on the south or south-west side of the site.

In order to obtain the optimum number ofharvest from one plant, grapes The original must be formed in the same way as other varieties, while leaving up to 40 eyes in one bush. During the growth of the vine and the establishment of fruit formations, it is necessary to carefully monitor the stepsons and remove them completely. They select a significant amount of nutrients from the above sprouts, causing a bunch of bunches.

The grinding of fruits is facilitated by unfavorableweather conditions during flowering. To avoid this, experienced wine growers conduct timely processing of the vine with preparations that enhance the natural immunity of the plant. During the ripening of grapes, you can cut off most of the leaves on the vine. This will allow the grapes to quickly and evenly ripen and acquire a characteristic pink tan. Formation of the bush is also given special attention, because the yield of the plant depends on this. Remove up to 12 eyes on each shoot.

Methods of reproduction

Like other varieties, grape Original canpropagate by propagation and inoculation. Each method has advantages and disadvantages. For example, young seedlings are better sucked in milder climates. If the average annual temperatures are low, often prolonged rains and late frosts, it is best to practice the inoculation of the cuttings of this variety on the stock of the grapes adapted to such conditions. Fans of growing a vine "from scratch" will like reproduction with seeds. In this case, the plant will be absolutely healthy, but the harvest will have to wait 5 years longer than when planting cuttings or grafting.
