As for the care, the gardener will expect standard agrotechnical measures, which will necessarily include watering, fertilizing, weeding and much more.The first three weeks are most important: if during this period the variety is provided with decent care, it will definitely take root.

Landing

Experts advise planting early hope in the spring. The pit will need a rather large one - about 80x80x80 cm. The bottom of the hole is fertilized with standard dressings for planting grapes. By the way, it is best to prepare the pit in the fall. After planting, the grapes must be watered and mulched. The seedlings are tied up, a polyethylene shelter can be made from above, which will need to be removed after 2 weeks.

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

Pruning

This is the most important point of care for this variety. Due to the heavy bunches and the large amount of harvest, the vine needs to be rationed. It is worth trimming from 6 to 8 eyes. In this case, 35 eyes will remain on the bush itself. In addition, dried, dead, abnormally growing branches must be removed annually.

Watering

Watering is very important for young seedlings. It is necessary that the water penetrates into the ground by about 40 cm. A newly planted vine is watered twice a week, using a bucket of warm, settled water on the bush. If it is very hot outside, the frequency is increased up to 3 times a week, while the water should be 1.5-2 times more.

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 irrigation 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.
