Grapes
The early Violet grape has been known for over 70 years, but even now it has not lost its significance. Its berries are suitable both for direct consumption and for winemaking: a muscat called Steppe rose is prepared on its basis. Since the variety has increased cold resistance, it is grown in many regions with little or no shelter.
Grapes are now planted not only in the south, it has long been no wonder in the middle lane and even in the north. It is necessary to take care of him constantly; if grown improperly, he easily becomes ill or is exposed to pests. One of the measures to prevent these troubles is the timely treatment with chemicals.
Not only in the south, but also in Central Russia, Siberia, the Urals and other regions located in the zones of risky farming, gardeners are interested in growing ultra-early ripening grape varieties, which already in the middle of summer "ruddy side, fragrant juice" ask for a table ... One of these early hybrids is the Tukay dessert grape.
The Alpha grape is mistakenly called Isabella in some regions for its striking resemblance to this legendary variety. One of the most significant differences: the Isabella grape is a southern variety, while Alpha ripens in the Leningrad region, the Far East, the Urals, Siberia, although it is not an early variety. Even a beginner can grow such grapes, but Alpha also has features that will have to be reckoned with.
