You can evaluate the quality by cutting off a small amount of bark. When growing a bush from a cuttings and observing the rules of agricultural technology, survival rate is about 90%, the high quality of the plant is practically guaranteed.

Growing features

Landing

The vines are planted in rows with an interval of 2 m, from row to row the interval is 2.5 m. For cross-pollination, several grape bushes of a different variety with a bisexual type of flowering must grow nearby.

Landing features
In order for the vine to give a signal harvest after 3 years, it is necessary to take into account many factors - from the type of soil on the site to the nearby plants.

Pollination

The Asya variety carries only female inflorescences; for fruiting, the plant needs cross-pollination with a different variety. Flowers and ovaries do not crumble, not prone to peas.

Pruning

Pruning is carried out carefully, the variety has very fragile shoots. The grapes have a tendency to the appearance of many lateral shoots, in the spring they are cut into 6-8 eyes, leaving no more than 40 shoots on the bush. For the winter, shorten by 2/3. Excess growth is removed throughout the season.

Pruning is one of the main grape care procedures. Depending on the purpose of pruning and the type of plant, the appropriate type of formation is selected.

Watering

The variety has drought tolerance, but excess moisture is contraindicated. Watering is necessary as the soil dries up; in the dry season, the frequency of watering is increased. After each irrigation, the soil is mulched. In autumn and spring, water-charging irrigation is done.

Top dressing

Fertilizers are applied during irrigation: in the spring - nitrogenous, in the summer - potash and phosphorus. It is recommended to alternate organic and mineral.

Irrigation schemes
In order for the berries to be large and juicy, it is necessary to organize full watering and feeding. All standards must be adjusted for weather conditions and the rate of evaporation of the liquid.
With a frequent watering scheme, it is recommended to moisturize once every two weeks (that is, twice a month during flowering and the appearance of berries) so that the earth is saturated 50 cm deep so that the plant does not switch to superficial (dew) roots. This amount can be reduced by mulching the crop with straw.
With a rare irrigation scheme, choosing the age and maturation of the grapes, you can use the standards presented in the table in another article.
