Site selection and soil preparation

This variety is quite unpretentious, but it still needs a good place to plant it. It is best to plant in warm areas, sheltered from the wind, on neutral soil. In order to plant bushes, it is necessary to clear the soil from weeds and vegetation. Add fertilizer in the form of ash and humus. It promotes the growth of young seedlings very well.

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.

Pruning

Pruning should start in early spring. It is necessary to remove all dry, weakened, diseased branches, which will subsequently interfere with the growth of healthy ones. All other normal shoots must be cut to the first bud formed. In early summer, additional pruning is done to thin out the bush.

Watering the crop is one of the most important tasks. The variety requires abundantly moistened soil. Make sure the soil is always moist as needed. After each watering, it is necessary to remove excess vegetation and weeds, loosen the ground. To keep the soil moist and loose for longer, you can mix it with hay or sawdust.

Fertilizers that are used at the beginning of the growing season of the plant are not suitable during flowering and ripening of berries.

Frost resistance and preparation for winter

If the snow cover is large, then it can withstand winter temperatures down to -25 degrees. In places where the winters are very cold and the snow cover is small, it is recommended to cover the bushes so that they do not freeze.

In order for the bushes to bear fruit next year, you need to prepare them for overwintering. You need to start in the middle of autumn. It is imperative to water the culture. This is done so that the roots are properly saturated with moisture and tolerate the winter well. It is necessary to cut off branches that have been affected by pests, shoots that have already borne fruit. The soil should be well covered with hay or straw to protect the roots from freezing.
