He has many names - among them are the Glory of Moldova, and Early Rizamat, Kyzyl Uzum Kanibadam.

Breeding history
Strictly speaking, with Shahiney, nothing at all is one hundred percent known - by whom it was obtained who her “parents” were. There is a stable version that the homeland of the “monarchy” is Tajikistan, more precisely, that it is nothing but the old and little-known variety - Kyzyl Uzum Kanibadam.
Shahin was not included in the breeding register, it is also rarely found - because of the thermophilic and weak resistance to fungal.

Diseases and pests
If we consider the list of enemies of this grape, it becomes clear that the birds are far from the most terrible of them. It is easy to protect themselves from them by a net fence, they simply cannot reach the fruits.
Other aggressors are much more serious. And tops this list powdery mildew - it is oidium. Sulfur-containing drugs are used against it - these include Horus, Topaz, Scor, Tiovit Jet, Strobe, Caratan, Talendo.
Another aggressor that can attack grapes is bacterial cancer. There is nothing to fight with him, except for uprooting the diseased bushes. Timely fertilizing with mineral fertilizers, according to farmers, reduces the risk of oncology.
It is necessary to treat seedlings as carefully as possible, not to injure them.
Gray rot is also a serious attack. Against it, the bushes are sprayed with potassium iodide, vitriol, karbofos. Also in the course are Topaz, Fundazol, Immunocetofit.
Preventive measures may also be required against common diseases such as mildew, anthracnose, bacteriosis, rubella and chlorosis.
Leaflets, too, are not averse to eat grapes. Light traps, which are preferred by farmers who are "afraid of chemistry", are not effective against parasites. Yes, and "conducted" on them, as a rule, males. It is necessary to apply insecticides - cymbush, tokution, ekamet, sumicidin, sevil, tsidian.
It should also be protected from felt itchiness, since he winters easily in the kidneys. Sulfur-containing drugs are effective against it - Aktara, Bi-58, Karate-Zeon, Vertimek.

One thing is indisputable: this variety can withstand transportation well, it is well kept and few people decorate a wall or fence better than it.
