Breeding history
It was received in NIViV "Magarach" (Ukraine). "Parents" - Gift Zaporozhye and Richelieu. Breeders were faced with the goal of bringing a fundamentally new variety that would retain all the positive qualities of a parent couple, but at the same time would not be afraid of anything.
I must say, they almost succeeded - this variety is getting accustomed not only in the areas of mild climate (Ukraine, Moldova, the Crimean peninsula), but, according to the results of the experiments, even in central Russia.
The remaining qualities of the new hybrid are currently being tested.
Specifications
The variety has a good yield, and even stepchildren and dormant buds "shoot" it. It needs pruning for six to eight eyes.
High yields are also demonstrated by Pereyaslavskaya Rada, Miner and Arcadia.
Afraid of showers and spring frosts. Requires shelter for the winter. Frost resistance is high - up to minus 26 degrees, good resistance to parasites.
Compatibility with stocks satisfactory.
Sugar content of 18-20% Brix.
Diseases and pests
The berries are protected from birds by a rigid mesh fence that completely covers the vineyard. The fishing net here is a bad helper, unless of course the farmer has a goal to catch more birds as a snack.
Scarecrows will not help either, including all sorts of scary big-eyed posters - it quickly reaches the birds that they are led by the nose and then it is impossible to give berries to them. The wasps will also welcome.
The clusters are packed in mesh bags that let the wind and the sun through, but not the wasps. You will also have to carefully inspect the site. All wasp nests that are found must be destroyed.
Variety resistant to parasitesbut needs prevention against gray rot and mealy dew - oidium and mildew. To do this, use drugs: vitriol, Benomil, Derozal, Tserkobin Rowral, Ronilan.
Also need to feed the bushes, but do not get involved in excessive fertilizers with a high nitrogen content. The vine must be rid of the stepsons, the extra shoots, and the space around the bunches must also be cleared from the leaves.
In memory of Dzheneev, the variety is not capricious, it requires minimal self-care. That is why beginners are so fond of him. But the experienced ones do not lag behind - because of the wine.
Among the unpretentious varieties should pay attention to the Giovanni, Alesenkin gift and Delight Perfect.
It is enough just to try it and the last doubts will disappear from you that it is not only possible to plant this variety, but also to. But the treatment against fungal infections is not at all complicated and is not difficult even for an inexperienced gardener.
