Recommendations for planting grape seedlings varieties EG Pavlovsky
Since all varieties bred by Ye.G. Pavlovsky are relatively new, it is best to propagate them with the help of seedlings purchased in the nursery. Thanks to this, it will be possible to grow exactly the variety that you have chosen. Time for planting Pavlovsky grapes fit both autumn and springher The only difference is that in the fall it is much easier to pick up the sapling of the desired variety, so more often they are planted in the fall.
A landing site should be located on the south side of buildings and not obscured by other plants.
Grapes are very afraid of cold through winds, so there should be a structure near the bush that would keep it from the wind.
The soil must be fertile or independently add the necessary fertilizers.
Description of the stages of planting grape seedlings
• The pit should be prepared in advance. The optimal depth and width - 80 centimeters. Most of the pit is filled with a mixture of fertilizers and soil. After its settling, we start planting a sapling.
• Before planting, the seedling is kept for 24 hours in the water and dipped in the root formation stimulator. Further, it sinks into the pit (leaving the root neck above the surface) and is carefully covered with soil.
• A planted grapevine is watered, tied to a support, and the soil around it is mulched.
Features care for grape bushes Pavlovsky selection
• Any grape variety requires moisture. Without it, the growth of the bush and the formation of the harvest will not be possible. Therefore, both before flowering and after it, the bush must be watered. Also, watering is required in dry dry seasons.
• Feeding of grapes is not always necessary, but still very useful part of the care of grapes. Partial fertilizer will be supplied to the horses of the grapes due to the mulching of the soil around the trunk. Humus is most often used as mulch, although it is better to feed the bush under the digging. It is best to use blackened sawdust or moss. The optimum thickness of the layer of mulch - 3 centimeters. Also, it is good to feed the grapes with the help of phosphate and potash fertilizers.
• Any vine is very important to prune every autumn. Pruning needs a bush in order for it to be able to bear fruit well. After all, in this way, the bush is able to provide the harvest with much more nutrients. Pruning depends on the growth force of the bush: a strong-growing shrub is trimmed to 6-8 eyes, a medium-tall shrub is cut to 4-5. Also, with the help of trimming the shape of the bush is formed.
• For the winter, grapes must be covered, especially if in your climatic region temperatures below -20 ° C are possible. Seedlings covered with pots or flasks from under the water and covered with soil. Large bushes are best covered with foil, creating something like a tunnel over it.
• For the prevention of various diseases of vineyards, the bush is sprayed at least 3 times per season.
