Breeding history of the variety

It was the dream of Russian gardeners to get a fruitful variety of large-fruited raspberries, resistant to unfavorable growing conditions and diseases. It was carried out by the Russian honored breeder Viktor Kichina. The basis was the American and Scottish hybrids, known for their large-fruited. The variety, called Gigantic by gardeners, was created by hybridization of such raspberry varieties as Stolichnaya and Shtambovy-20, in 1998 it was given the official name - Pride of Russia.

The pride of Russia does not tolerate the lack of light and the lack of regular watering. If during the fruiting period there were prolonged precipitation, a prolonged drop in temperature, the berries may lose their presentation, often doubled, the taste deteriorates. The disadvantages are the low keeping quality of the fruits and their weak aroma, the inability to transport the crop.

Ripening terms

The variety is non-repairable, but has a long fruiting period up to 5-6 harvests per season. The beginning of ripening of berries occurs in July and lasts until August.

Yield

You can collect up to 4-5 kg ​​per bush or 20 tons per hectare, which makes it one of the highest-yielding varieties.

It is not recommended to store fresh raspberries for a long time, maximum 3 days in the refrigerator. Fruits for universal use - suitable for all types of processing: freezing, jams, compotes, preserves.

How to choose a raspberry seedling
Due to its unpretentiousness, raspberries live in almost every garden plot. But in order to get tasty berries, you must first plant a healthy and strong seedling. In nurseries, shops and private sellers, you can find a huge assortment of seedlings, but how to determine their quality and be sure of the abundance of fruiting already upon purchase?

Growing features

When planting, it is necessary to maintain an interval of 1-1.2 m between seedlings, and 2 m between rows. The variety takes root well in a new place and quickly develops new territories, therefore, timely harvesting of the growth is necessary. Variety care The pride of Russia comes down to regular watering, loosening and mulching the soil in the raspberry-tree, thinning the bush and feeding.

The creator of the variety, Viktor Kichina, advised cultivating large-fruited raspberry varieties, which include the Pride of Russia, on supports that support the bush, especially during the fruiting period, when the berries make the shoots heavier. The garter increases the illumination of each bush and makes it easier to care for the raspberry tree. The stems are tied to supports in two places: at a height of 50 and 130 cm.When cultivating a variety, trellises are mounted in one line, the pillars for which are installed in 2 rows along the planted bushes every 3 m. Shoots are tied to the wire stretched over the supports.

Site selection and soil preparation

Well-lit slopes, the highest places on an area with a low groundwater level, are suitable for growing raspberries Pride of Russia. The culture grows well on the south side along fences, sheds, utility blocks that act as protection from cold winds. The variety needs light loamy, sandy loam soils, the acidity is better neutral. Clay soils in the area intended for planting seedlings must be improved by adding 1 bucket of sand per 1 m2. If the soil is acidic, liming is better - 500 g of lime per 1 m2.

If you have a choice, it is better to avoid planting raspberries next to potatoes, peppers, tomatoes and strawberries, these crops are also undesirable as predecessors.

2 weeks before planting, the site is dug up, choosing the weeds. For 1 m2, 2 buckets of compost or humus and 300 g of ash are added. For bush cultivation of the variety, pits of 60x50 cm are prepared.For linear, trenches 50 cm wide and 45 cm deep are dug.The distance between the rows is maintained at about 1.5-2 m, between the bushes - 70 cm.

After planting, watered abundantly at the rate of 5 liters of water per plant. The raspberry tree must be mulched with straw, hay, dried grass, with a layer of at least 10 cm. The shoots must be cut to a height of 45 cm.

A plentiful and high-quality harvest in the future depends on the correct technology of planting a raspberry bush. It is necessary to choose the right planting material, determine the location and prepare the site.
Garter raspberries is a difficult and painstaking task. This requires time and imagination. But on the other hand, the benefits from this process are enormous. Thanks to the garter, the fruits ripen more intensively and regularly. Bushes are much less deformed, branches do not break off. After the garter, the berries are better preserved, and the greatest achievement at the same time is the convenience of harvesting.

Watering is of particular importance when caring for a raspberry tree, with a lack of moisture, the shoots of the plant ripen poorly, the fruits may shrink, the yields are reduced.

It is not recommended to water the raspberry by sprinkling during the ripening of the berries, it is better in the grooves. Subwinter watering, especially in a dry year, is recommended at the rate of 2 buckets per bush.

Fertile fertilized soil in the raspberry field is the key to high yields. In the first season after planting, the crop is not fertilized. The next year, after the snow cover melts, 30 g of urea per 1 m2 is applied to stimulate shoot formation. In June, fertilize with potassium salt, nitrophosphate at the rate indicated on the package of the drug. In the fall, you can add superphosphate and potassium salt.

One of the conditions for proper care of raspberries is proper watering.The rules for watering raspberries are the same for all varieties and varieties of this garden plant. Moistening should be carried out if the soil has dried out by 5 cm or more.
One of the most important conditions for growing large and sweet raspberries is timely fertilization. For each stage of development of the raspberry bush, different feeding is required. Fertilizers that are used at the beginning of the growing season of the plant are not suitable during flowering and ripening of berries.
