Cultivation principle
Planting is carried out only after a high-quality seedling of Kinelsky grapes has been found. It is better to buy it from specialized nurseries or from trusted private suppliers. A prerequisite is the presence of a grafting site and the optimal height of the seedling - 50 cm. It is allowed to buy taller plants, but you cannot purchase seedlings below the specified height. Landing is carried out at a depth of 50 cm.
Site and soil selection
The ideal place for planting this crop is sunny and unshaded areas. This variety is considered early because it belongs to sun-loving crops. With a lack of lighting, fruiting times increase.
The soil must be nutritious, therefore, it is preferable to plant in loamy or sandy soils with low acidity (up to 4%).
The optimal planting time for Kinelsky grapes is early May. For 2 months, they begin to prepare the landing hole. It should be 100 cm deep and 80 cm in diameter. If the groundwater is close to the surface of the earth, a drainage system is installed at the bottom. It is easy to make it from crushed stone or crushed silicate. With a low nutritional value of the soil, 5 kg of humus are also poured onto the bottom.
Landing features
In May, the seedling is placed inside the hole to a depth of 50 cm.All varieties of Kinelsky grapes are characterized by a closed root system, therefore, planting is allowed in containers, having cut off the bottom in advance. This will protect the young plant from frost and ensure proper root development.
The roots are covered with the top layer of earth, which remained after digging a hole. The seedling is watered with 20 liters of warm water and tied to a metal support up to 2 m high.The planting pattern of this culture is 4x5 m.
Care
It is not difficult to care for the varieties of this variety. They need to be watered at intervals of 10-15 days, depending on the growing region. Pour 20 liters of warm water under each bush. The best time for watering is early morning, when the sun's rays are not as active. 4 days after watering, the top layer of the earth is loosened to a depth of 10 cm. It is important to remove weeds, since they are often parasitized by pests that can harm the grapes.
Top dressing is not the most important step in the care. This variety is capable of producing good yields, even with minimal fertilization.
The next year after planting, in the middle of spring, intra-root top dressing is carried out with a solution of potassium nitrate (50 g per 10 l of water). In the summer, top dressing is carried out using a superphosphate solution (40 g per 10 l of water). In the fall, 3 kg of humus is applied under each bush to prepare the plant for the coming winter.
This variety does not need regular pruning. It is enough to periodically inspect the plant for dry and damaged areas. They are removed.
Pest and disease control
Kinel grape varieties are characterized by high resistance to diseases and pests, but with poor quality care, the risk of their appearance increases.
- Gray and root rot appear due to poor-quality watering (its overabundance). To combat this, the normalization of the irrigation process and regular treatment of the garden plot with a solution of Bordeaux liquid (20 g per 10 l of water) helps.
- A solution of wood ash helps to get rid of powdery mildew, which appears due to viruses on weeds (200 g of ash is infused in 5 liters of water during the day). Such treatments are carried out at intervals of 10 days.
The frequent appearance of wasps, ticks, birds and flea beetles is noted. Special mesh fences or shiny elements on the bushes help to get rid of birds. In the fight against wasps - sweet mixtures (jam, jam or honey), which are set near the bushes. They fight against ticks with cayenne pepper tincture (10 g of powder is insisted in 5 liters of water throughout the day). Flea beetles are removed with Oxychom solution (30 g per 10 l of water). Spraying is carried out at intervals of 15 days.
Conclusion
Growing a variety at home is easy. The main thing is to study all the intricacies of planting and care in order to grow tasty and healthy fruits.
