Caring for Kishmish Potapenko grapes

Therefore, the very first humidification is carried out in the spring, when the air temperature has risen and reached above 0ºC. The second watering is carried out after the event of pruning the vine shoots. Humidification should be 30 liters of water per 1 m². Subsequent moistening procedures are carried out before flowering and after it, with intensive growth and development, pouring grape berries and grape clusters (from 35 to 45 water per 1 m²).

  • Vine care.

The Kishmish Potapenko variety vine is pruned in early spring. To properly distribute the future weight of the crop on the bush, pruning is done into 7 eyes. The acceptable load on 1 grape bush should be 35 eyes.

Before and after flowering, Kishmish Potapenko is fertilized with superphosphates. Periodically, the moistening process is combined with fertilizing from humus.

  • Basic preventive measures against diseases and pests.

Kishmish Potapenko is relatively resistant to pests and diseases. But we cannot do without exceptions. Yellow spots may appear on the leaves. In this case, the bush variety is treated with a 1% solution of Bordeaux mixture. Grapes of this variety are susceptible to attack by poultry. Measures to combat bird attacks consist of fencing the entire perimeter of the vineyard with a special fence in the form of a mesh. It is recommended to use a special sugar solution against wasps and first find and destroy their nests.

  • Preparing for winter.

The Kishmish Potapenko variety is winter-hardy, but this does not negate the preparation of the plant for winter. Each crop is insulated. The bushes are first divided into two equal parts, which are separately tied up and laid on the ground covered with special material. The bushes are fixed to the ground so that they do not rise. The second way to prepare for winter is to divide the vine as stated earlier and cover it with earth so that small mounds of soil appear. When carrying out such preliminary measures for insulation and preparation for winter, the plant will endure severe frosts.

Leaves medium-sized, strongly wavy, funnel-grooved (the edges of the blades are bent upward, forming wide grooves), coarsely bubbly in the middle part, usually deeply slotted, five-lobed; reticulate-wrinkled above, completely bare below. The upper notches are deep and of medium depth, wide open with a sharp or pointed bottom; in flatter leaves, sometimes closed with elliptical openings. The lower notches are small and medium deep, open lyre-shaped. The petiole recess is always closed by deeply overlapping lower lobes, without a clearance or with a narrow elliptical clearance. The teeth at the ends of the blades are large, triangular, sometimes elongated into a point. The marginal denticles are wide with convex sides, often with rounded apices; those on the apical leaves are typically dome-shaped. Due to the bending of the teeth in the form of small grooves, the edges of the sheet give the impression of being finely ruffled (corrugated).

Flowers bisexual. Bunches medium-sized and large (up to 20 cm in length), elongated-conical, sometimes with highly developed upper branches, loose. The stems of the clusters are long, grassy, ​​brittle. Berries small (in large-fruited variations of this variety they are almost medium in size), oval, sometimes slightly ovoid, dark blue, covered with a thick bluish waxy coating. The skin is medium thick, easily torn. The pulp is dense, fleshy. The taste is ordinary, highly sugary, refreshing. There are no seeds in the berries *.

* (The berries contain only underdeveloped seeds with soft shells, which are not felt at all when eaten.)

Characteristics of the variety. One of the most important industrial Central Asian grape varieties, also widely known as Shuvargany, Kara Kishmish, etc. Black Kishmish takes third place after White Kishmish and Khusayne in the vineyards of the Uzbek SSR, second place after the Chilyaki variety in the vineyards of the Tajik SSR, and in the rest of the Central Asian republics much less common. Among seedless grape varieties it stands out for its largest berries.

The variety is mainly a table variety and is also widely used for drying. The berries ripen early - in Tashkent around mid-August, in Samarkand - in the second half of this month. Growth is strong, vines ripen slowly and late. In favorable climatic conditions Central Asia, with abundant irrigation, Black Kishmish produces high yields, but when cultivated without irrigation and in more northern regions, its yield decreases sharply.

The winter hardiness of Black Kishmish is weak; in areas with harsh winters it requires careful covering using a layer of loose organic materials. The variety is also very sensitive to fungal diseases. If there is precipitation during ripening, its berries crack easily, especially after a previous drought.

The variety was included in the standard assortments of the Uzbek, Tajik and Turkmen SSR. Due to early ripening, it is also promising for testing in the middle zone of covered viticulture in the USSR.
