Grapes Julian - the most delicious hybrid variety

Sometimes it is quite difficult to choose a variety of grapes for successful growing in the garden area, because different species require certain care. In addition, the plant must meet certain requirements - it is resistance to diseases and frosts, fast ripening, taste. So, for example, grapes Julian is not only tasty, but also a fertile sort.

Features

It is a hybrid canteen form of early maturing grapes obtained by Kapelyushin VU by crossing the varieties Kesh and Rizomat. Julian is quite enough 95-105 days for the full maturation of grains. The vine ripens well, more than ¾ of the length. Flowers are bisexual.

The grape variety of Julian has very large cylindrical cones of medium density. The weight of each brush can be from 800 grams to two kilograms.

Load of plants with eyes is 40-50, pruning of fruit bearing vines is carried out on 8-10 eyes. Grapes Julian is quite resistant to mildew (7 points), oidium (7 points), berry rot (6-7 points). It also withstands freezing to -24 degrees Celsius. Cuttings of this variety take root very well, and the seedlings themselves have a powerful root system. This grapes is often found on sale, as it retains its presentation for a long time and has high transportability.

Grapes Julian: description of berries and taste

The berries themselves have a gently pink color, they play with glare against the sun. The size of each is 42x26 mm. The shape of the berries is oval or oblong nipple. This variety is excellent in storing sugar, but the wasps do not touch it. When ripe berries do not have the property to burst. The rind of the grapes is soft, you can not feel it while eating, the flesh is dense and crisp. Grapes Julian, whose photo is presented below, has a very pleasant and harmonious taste (with light Muscat notes).

Selecting the location and preparing the ground for the drop-off

Grapes Julian very fond of the sun's rays, so for his landing it is recommended to pick up a place near the southern wall of the house, a barn, a fence or a fence. Also the site should be protected from winds, as the vines are very afraid of drafts. Otherwise, it is recommended to put a protective "screen" from the film on the eastern and northern sides of the seedlings.

If the soil in the allotted area contains too much moisture, drainage should be laid. 2-3 weeks before planting plants, the ground should be dug by a two-level digging. If the soil is too acidic, then add a little lime (200 grams per square meter). To increase the fertility of the soil, it is necessary to fertilize it with manure or compost, and also introduce complex mineral fertilizers.

After preparing the soil, it is necessary to build a support system from a horizontally stretched wire. To do this, you need to dig into the ground to a depth of 60 cm wooden posts 2 meters high. The distance between neighboring columns should be 2-3 meters. The very first, as well as the final column, must be reinforced with supports to give the structure greater stability. The lower row of wire is pulled at a distance of 40 cm from the surface of the soil, after which, with an interval of 30 cm, several more rows are stretched.

Grapes Julian: landing

In the southern regions, this variety is planted in the soil from October to March. In other localities, with colder climates, the vine is planted in the spring, before budding begins. When the buds begin to bloom, you can plant cuttings in the ground, while the soil temperature at the depth of the roots should be at least +10 degrees Celsius.

Trimming and Care

Grapes Julian needs an annual pruning. It is necessary to leave only three main stems. And two shoots are left for fruiting, and one is cut so that next year it can provide stems of substitution. Fructifying branches should be tied at a short distance from the earth, which will give the grapes their warmth.

Also, annually, it is necessary to introduce complex mineral fertilizers into the soil. In the spring, usually mulch a layer of over-rusted compost with a layer of up to 4 cm. Since the plant reacts rather sensitively to the lack of magnesium in the ground, it should be sprayed every two weeks with magnesium sulfate diluted in the proportion of 250 grams of substance per 10 liters of water. Feeding is carried out during the entire period of vegetation until the ripening period of berries. The vine growing near the wall needs constant watering.

How to keep the heat of the ground

There are several options to keep the heat received by the soil during the day:

- seizing the land allocated for the vineyard;

- mulching of the top layer of soil under the bush with the help of plant residues, black film;

- stacking under the racks of slides of brick or stones;

- You can arrange a vineyard container with water.

Constant monitoring of the weather

To the vine is not frozen, you must constantly monitor the weather - then freezing will not come as a surprise. So, for example, if the north wind appeared at night, the air is dry, and the sky is dotted with bright stars, then the temperature is likely to drop. In this case, it is necessary to water the soil of the vineyard in the evening and place plastic barrels with water on it (it keeps the heat longer). If the temperature starts to go below the 0 degrees Celsius mark, you should urgently sprinkle all the grape bushes with water until a thin ice crust appears on the leaves. In the morning the sun will rise, the ice will melt, and the vine will be saved. Such a procedure will save grapes from spring frosts.
