The Gusar grape stands out favorably among many other varieties. It's an attractive dining culture. Many gardeners will be very interested in exactly how to grow it, and what it is.

Breeding history

The development of the variety was carried out by S.E.Gusev (in whose honor, most likely, the name was given). The initial varieties, along with Pretty Woman, were made by the Talisman. The breeding work was carried out personally, no outside help was needed. The hybrid immediately established itself in the commercial sector.

Description

Ripening period

The grapes are classified as early-medium ripening varieties. Usually, you can harvest the fruits in the last summer decade. Under favorable conditions, the culture ripens a little earlier. Much also depends on the cultivation technique.

Bunches

They reach impressive sizes. They are similar in shape to a regular or extended cone. The density of the brushes is moderate. Their weight can vary from 800 g to 1.2 kg; the attractive feature is the zero risk of peas. Some clusters have a wing.

Berries

The Gusar grape belongs to table crops. The skin of the fruit is pink. It would be more accurate to say that it still has a dark tint. The peel is not too thick, so there is no need to talk about the strength of the crop.

Other parameters:

  • shape - an oval elongated in length;

  • size up to 5 cm (these are large fruits);

  • ripe weight 12-14 g.

Taste

The flesh of the Hussar is fleshy. Tasters also note its undeniable juiciness. According to reviews, the taste sensations are rather harmonious. Nobility and sophistication are found at the level of the best competing varieties. Sugar content - up to 220 g per 1 dm3.

Yield

The culture belongs to a strong-growing group and does not experience developmental problems. One bunch can account for up to 1000 g of the crop. There are no exact figures on fertility per bush in the sources. This is due to the short time of growing the hybrid and the lack of experience; with luck, 4 kilogram brushes are sometimes grown on 1 bush, but conclusions are still premature.

The choice of planting material
Experienced gardeners recommend that beginners take cuttings and seedlings from those who made them from their vines and are professionally engaged in the production of such material.
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. It is possible to control the development of grapes at all stages.
Subject to the rules of agricultural technology, survival rate is about 100%. The seedlings must be healthy. Pay attention to the absence of blisters, growths, or other signs of disease.

Growing features

Landing

Landing requirements have not yet been developed and defined. The berries will ripen in 110-115 days. The preliminary approach to farming is the same as for other early-medium varieties.

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 flowers of the culture are bisexual. Additional pollination plantings and neighborhoods are not required. The measures to attract the winged are traditional.

Pruning

Exact pruning figures have not been published.The plant is sprawling, and it often has to be reduced in width than vertically. The overgrowth is relatively weak, and this will have to be done infrequently, possibly irregularly. It is necessary to be guided by the state of a particular bush.

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.
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.

Frost resistance and the need for shelter

Protection against cold due to the thin skin is especially important for this variety. Heat protection structures are required to be used even on the Black Sea shores, not to mention the more northern regions. Some experts believe that the winter hardiness of Gusar is higher than that of similar crops. But this topic requires a long practical study. Exploring a non-sheltered culture in warm areas also has the potential to present a number of surprises.

Shelter for the winter is a very important step for the preservation of many grape varieties after wintering.

Diseases and pests

Resistance to major grape ailments is high. It is estimated at 2.5-3 points. Resistance to fungal infections is not fully understood. Even the most seasoned agronomists recommend taking maximum precautions. No particular problems with pests have yet been found.

Storage

It is problematic to preserve thin berries for a long time. Their main culinary use is fresh consumption. The transportability is quite high. The fruits are firmly connected to the stalks. With short storage and moderately long-distance transportation, they will not crumble.
