Accelerating the aging of the vine

If the vine does not ripen, harvest the next year can not wait. But what if the summer was rainy and cold?

In essence, nevyzrevshie vine - is not yet the vine, and escape. Vine ripened warm to the touch, it odrevesnevaet, changes color.

Odrevesnevaet vine, from green to brown.

Vine ripened on a section of the green! Take in hand and lead to the base of the bush, where you feel the heat, there is circumcision.

This vine will take good winterUnlike nevyzrevshie, so the tenants often they go to various tricks to still bring it to the necessary standard.

A well-known way of speeding up the ripening of the vine - remove it from any part of the harvest. All the tenants know - vines that do not have berries ripen in a few times faster. Sometimes this vine ripened completely, and that on which hang the brush, only a few centimeters. To accelerate the aging fertile vines, or can remove extra brushes (preferably leave one at each shoot), or to remove unnecessary berries from the brush. The second method is preferable, because it removes all sub-standard fruit, which, in general, do not feel sorry: immature, partially eaten by wasps, spoiled. Remove 1/5 of the berries can be, and only those clusters where a lot of them. Thus are killed at once two hares: accelerated aging of the vines and the sun provides admission to the remaining grapes to ripen too quickly. It is the most common technique, and it is considered the most reliable.

The famous Siberian grower Victor Tatievsky from Barnaul draws attention to the importance of winegrowers beginners such a simple way to speed up the ripening vines like weeding.

Victor Tatievsky (head of the club winegrowers "Alpha", Barnaul):

I necessarily spend the weeding of weeds, especially in shelters, because the weeds grow faster than grapes, even can close it from the sun.

Another well-known method - dressing vine potash and phosphate fertilizers. In the rainy cold summer without it simply can not do. Even at harvest overloads vine shrubs begin to mature faster if their feed solution superphosphate (100 g of superphosphate per 10 liters of water) or infusion of ash.

It seems to me difficult to overfeed ash, although it depends on the dose. She bit deoxidize soil. I have a sour earth, so it is very benefit ash goes. If youalkaline soil, It's probably worth more cautious use ash.

You can buy potassium monophosphate, if there is no ash or reluctance to tinker.

Chasing shoots is also used to accelerate the maturation of the vines. It is simple: each vine that has grown to one and a half meters long, flexible removed young elite. Normally coining do, cutting the upper node 2-3, starting from the crown. What if this happens? Nutrients come now more "adult" part of the rod, and it starts lignificated.

I must say that it is arguable reception. And the controversy about its effectiveness are conducted in winegrowers environment: many believe that the vine has to grow without limits. The rapid growth of laterals, which often begins at the vine after the coinage, often causes questioned its effectiveness, because stepsons, growing from the lower buds, too, take the plant nutrients substances.

But, as we have said above, in central Russia and Siberia growth of vines is necessary to limit to fall for her successful wintering.

Ripening fruit arrow starts from the place of regrowth from the vine and lasts the entire growing season. The larger (in length) will ripen fruit arrow, the greater supply of nutrients postponed in the wood, the more ripen fruit buds.

In order not to send the winter nevyzrevshie buds, pruning do "with reserve". That is, cut off and part of the ripe wood. Typically, a rod is cut at 6-8 or 10-12 kidney, depending on the variety.

With the advent of new materials in the northern viticulture used this technique as ripening vines in autumn shelter made of polycarbonate.

After cutting thin shoots, which are definitely not ripen, the vine is placed into the trench and hiding structure made of polycarbonate. This simple structure, in essence, the conventional sheet which can strengthen the base of the trench. Read more about this method, you tell the video on our website. The point is that under cover is formed and for a long time, high fever, which guarantees the vines ripening almost to its very tip.

You can make a film and shelter (plastic sheeting fit better than the covering material), in any case, it will be correct. The fact that shortly after the harvest in many parts of cooling occurs, and in this makeshift greenhouse vine, it's not terrible, and she manages to accumulate the required amount for the winter nutrients.

With this autumn ripening on the vine ripening problems completely removed.

To save precious heat the soil around the bushes mulching black film or draped them with stones that work like batteries: accumulate heat during the day and at night give. This technique is used for producing early crops of grapes.
