Kishmish the best varieties

The Kishmish grape is a whole series of a special (hybrid) seedless grape variety. Kishmish grapes are bred mainly in the Middle East and Asia. Kishmish grapes have their progenitors, it is also a special variety of boneless grapes - Black Manucca and Thompson, which appeared in the world as a result of mutation in their natural form.

The grapes are mainly grown as a simple table variety or for making raisins, however, Kishmish grapes are also used for juice and delicious wine.

There are a huge number of recipes in the world using this grape variety, for example, dried raisins, desserts, red wine, white wine, salads, jam and so on.

Properties of the variety and its characteristics

The Kishmish grape is considered a seedless variety, and also has its own characteristics. All grapes are very sweet because the berries are about twenty percent sugar alone.

You can make raisins, wine, juice, and other dishes from berries, you can also just eat it, which is why Kishmish grapes are considered a universal variety.

The tastiest and sweetest grapes usually grow only in those regions where there is a hot climate, but they have the opportunity to take root in a temperate one.

The vine is frost-resistant, capable of withstanding a temperature threshold of minus twenty-five degrees, and at the same time it grows quite quickly. In winter, in particularly cold areas, grapes require shelter.

Kishmish grapes are considered a fruitful variety, with medium and early ripening. Just one branch can form from two to three and more bunches.

The weight of such bunches can reach as much as a thousand grams, starting from five hundred grams. The berries are of different sizes, this directly depends mainly on the hybrid itself.

The color of the berries can be pink, black, red, white. Small berries are covered with bloom. Kishmish grapes have an interesting calorie content, sixty-nine kilocalories per hundred grams.

Why is this variety useful?

The benefits of such grapes are incredibly large, they are even advised as a dietary food. The special chemical composition has a truly positive effect on the human nervous system, heart and gastrointestinal tract.

Basically, this grape variety is recommended for people with subsequent diseases:

• Persistent or seasonal decrease in immunity;
• Bronchial asthma;
• Caries;
• Periodontal disease;
• Gingivitis;
• Pathology of the gallbladder;
• Stomach pathology;
• Osteoporosis;
• Bowel disease;
• Diseases of the stomach that are accompanied by nausea and heartburn;
• Bladder pathology;
• Kidney pathology;
• Heart disease - hypertension, vascular dystonia, arrhythmia;
• Depression;
• Neuroses.

Kishmish grapes have a special calming feature, this is due to the very high content of trace elements and vitamins in grapes, and if there is a lack of these elements, irritability and fatigue can be observed.

Due to the simply huge amount of potassium in grapes, this variety is able to regulate the work of the heart, while vitamin C is very well able to increase immunity and strengthen blood vessels.

Also in grapes there are folic acid, iron and vitamin B12, which can serve you as prevention and treatment of anemia.

If you have inflammatory diseases associated with the oral cavity, inflammation of the intestines, infections, gastritis in remission, then grapes have oleanolic acid, which has antiseptic properties.

Also, grapes with this acid are very useful for pathologies with the urinary system, for example, cystitis or pyelonephritis. Calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and boron can strengthen bones and counteract the development of osteoporosis. Grapes are able to satisfy hunger, as they have an increased calorie content.

Who is this grape variety forbidden to?

Unfortunately, Kishmish grapes are not good for everyone. Grapes contain a large amount of glucose, so people with diabetes are prohibited from eating this variety.

It is also not advised to give grapes to children under one year old, because it is very sweet. It is also forbidden to give to people with a clear share of obesity, because of the calories.

If a person has gastritis or a stomach ulcer in an aggravated state, then it is forbidden to give grapes, because the acid in it can affect the mucous membrane. Grapes also have very beneficial properties, however, during the recovery period.

Planting grapes

The basic rules for planting different types of grapes are very similar. It is very important to choose the species that best suits your area and your climate.

Seedlings are usually planted in autumn or spring. In the southern regions, they are mainly planted in the autumn, but if you take into account the conditions of the central zone of the Russian Federation and the Moscow region, we advise you to plant grapes in the spring.

If you still plant your variety in the fall, we recommend that you cover the seedling very carefully with earth, because there is a risk of freezing of the vine.

We recommend that you choose the most optimal place for planting a seedling, for example, it should be a lit place without any drafts.

The hills or the side of the wall are best suited, mainly in the southwest or just south direction.

This variety loves space, which is why we advise you to plant a seedling a hundred centimeters from any support, for example, from a fence or a wall.

The distance between the seedlings should be about two hundred and sixty to two hundred and eighty centimeters. If you have a large number of seedlings, then we advise you to plant them from two hundred and eighty to three hundred centimeters.

The most acceptable moment would be to plant this grape variety from the end of April to the end of May, at times when there is simply no threat of frost.

In such cases, the grapes simply won't need shelter. In the fall, you should start planting in the middle of the fall in early October, before the real frost.

For the winter period, the seedlings should be covered, for example, you can use a plastic bottle or plastic wrap, then fill up all the soil and insulate with leaves, or straw, you also have the opportunity to use other materials.

A hole for planting a seedling must be dug about seventy centimeters deep and eighty centimeters in diameter.

At the very bottom, you should put a good layer of drainage, pebbles or small graphy. Then you can add fertilizer.

Further, on top you need to fill in a special mixture of sand, turf and humus, and also dig a support into the hole.

The grapes will need to be planted in a very narrow hole, which you can make with a shovel handle or a crowbar. The root system of the seedling must be sprinkled with soil as carefully as possible.

The twig is sprinkled with earth until two free buds remain on the surface. Water the bush very abundantly, about two buckets per bush.When the earth has already drawn in water, the soil is shallowed around the seedling. After ninety days, you need to pinch the tops of the young shoots.

Kishmish grapes reproduce well by cuttings. You have the opportunity to prepare cuttings in the autumn and store them at home.

And in the spring, all the cuttings are rooted, and then transferred to the vineyard, in this way you can increase the number of bushes. With the help of cuttings, it is very easy to renew the vine, as well as to get new varieties of grapes. Cuttings are obtained only by pruning this grape variety in the autumn.

Caring for raisins grapes

Basically, there are no difficulties in caring for Kishmish grapes, it is simple and includes:

• Watering;
• The battle with pests and various kinds of diseases;
• Fertilizers;
• Pruning.

Watering in the summer must be very abundant. The amount of water mainly depends on the soil itself. For example, black soil requires thirty percent less water than a simple sandy soil.

According to average statistics, about fifteen liters of water are used for one single bush of grapes, watering must be repeated every three or four days. Fourteen days before picking berries from the bush, you need to cut watering in half. Or simply replace drip irrigation.

In order for your bushes not to infect various fungal diseases, you need to treat the grapes with Bordeaux liquid. In order to get rid of wasps, you need to process the Kishmish grapes with vinegars, or simply fumigate with smoke.

We recommend using insecticides against various pests, for example, from spider mites, beetle larvae and leafworms.

Fertilizers should be applied in moderation. In the spring, top dressing is applied, which contains nitrogen, so that the bush and its deciduous mass significantly increase the rate of development.

Before the very beginning of flowering, you need to add Plantofol. Throughout the season, you should feed the vine with special magnesium sulfate, magnesium sulfate and monophosphate.

Vine pruning is carried out in the first year, for this you need to prune all weak shoots. A very long pruning of branches for eight to twelve eyes is also practiced.

The load on a young bush must be twelve vines per six square meters, and on a mature shrub twenty-five vines per six square meters.

Basically, the bush is formed from a special calculation of ten and twelve branches per one meter of the height of the grapes itself. However, in this case, absolutely on each shoot, one or two large berry bunches of this variety will ripen.

If the bush is overloaded, then it is threatened by the so-called high-calorie starvation, all the berries will be just small and not sweet, the ripening process will be even slower, and it is possible that the grape bush will crack.

Kishmish grape varieties

There are just a lot of Kishmish grape varieties. They were bred in the past decades in a large number of different countries, and are still being bred. They differ among themselves, the shape of the berries, the size of the bunches, color and size.

In one form, the grapes will be boneless, in the other there will be so-called rudimentary rudiments - you can grow such hybrids from seeds. Also, in grape varieties, the composition of nutrients, as well as the amount of sugar, may differ.

The most basic characteristic of grapes is considered frost resistance. All grapes are different among themselves, some can live in temperate climates and the middle lane, while others in hot areas.

When choosing a variety, you should first find out the properties of this variety. Also, different types of grapes can differ in their purpose, that is, some can be for the manufacture of raisins, others are universal for everything, or simply exclusively for dining rooms.

Only you can choose which one is the best for you. Here is a list of the most famous kishmish grape varieties:

Radiant; Niagara; Aksaysky; Asya; Veles; Kishmish 342 or as it is called Hungarian in another way; Aphrodite; Katia; Ainset; Neptune; Paradise; Arsenyevsky; Volodar; Red flame; New; Superior; Jupiter; Amber; Sidlis; Novocherkassky; Kesha; Spartan; Gin; Emerald; Find; Premier; Potapenko; Dream; Royal; Venus; Long-awaited; Attica; Gold Kishmish; Lucia; Moldavian.

In fact, showing photographs of all varieties and giving them a description is very long and, most importantly, difficult. We will give you only a list of the most famous varieties, as well as their characteristics.

The most important attention will deserve only the Far Eastern Kishmish grapes. In some cases, this species is confused with another plant, actinidia, but it is not clear how, because it has nothing to do with grapes at all.

However, in fact, an incredible variety was bred in the Primorsky Territory, whose name is Novinka or Taezhny, its feature is its high frost resistance.

Southern varieties of raisins

In the south, Kishmish grapes are very sweet, early ripening, with incredibly large and strong bunches of berries. Such varieties are not so frost-resistant, so they are of little use for breeding in the middle lane.

Radiant raisins

This species is native to Moldova. It is considered middle class in ripening, generally one hundred twenty to one hundred thirty five days.

One bunch of such grapes weighs from four hundred and fifty to six hundred and fifty grams, slightly loose, made in the shape of a cone with a small extension at the tips.

The berries are pink in color, they are all from four to five grams, an amazing rich taste of nutmeg, there is also a hint of light acid. The pulp of the grapes is quite fleshy and juicy.

This type of grape grows very quickly, but requires timely pruning. Frost resistance is very low, from fifteen to eighteen degrees. In this case, the bush itself must be very tightly covered in the winter.

Frost-resistant species

 It is very important to note that the types of frost-resistant grapes Kishmish endure rather severe frosts from twenty-three minutes to twenty-seven degrees.

They are in great need of shelter in areas where the temperature threshold in winter can drop much lower, but they bear fruit best in simple temperate climates than southern varieties.

New

Description of the best varieties with photos

Ripe bunch of Kishmish variety

The climate in our country is harsh. Previously, grapes were grown only in the south. Now, thanks to breeding work, varieties with early ripening of fruits, resistant to Russian frosts, have been obtained. Gardeners of the Urals and Southern Siberia successfully breed them on their backyard plots.

All new varieties are hybrids, there are many of them. You can always pick up a variety of raisins that winters well and matures during the short summer. Consider the popular varieties of raisins:

Advantages and disadvantages

Table Kishmish

The table shows the advantages of the varieties described above.

Variety	Frost resistance	Attitude to disease	Transportability	Usage
K. No. 342	-26 ° C	the variety is resistant to fungal diseases	good	fresh, drying
Rusball	-25 ° C (no shelter required)	immunity to mildew, gray mold	good	fresh, drying
K. radiant	low (-15 ° C), requires shelter for the winter	unstable	good	wine, compotes, fresh consumption
Jupiter	-27 ° C	medium resistance to fungal diseases, preventive treatments are needed	good	fresh, drying
Ainset Seedlis	-27 ° C	immunity to mildew, gray mold	good	fresh, drying

Each variety has disadvantages. For example, raisins No. 342 need shelter in winter, it crumbles if the bunches are not cut off in time. The disadvantages of Rusbol include high yield. If you do not carry out rationing of the crop, the bushes can break from severity. The presence of rudiments is another drawback of Rusbol raisins.

Small clusters and brittle branches are the disadvantages of Jupiter raisins. For raisins, a radiant drawback is a high yield, exactingness to agricultural technology. The variety requires rationing of ovaries.

Features of planting and care

Young seedling in soil

Successful cultivation of raisins begins with the selection of a variety that, in terms of its characteristics, is suitable for specific climatic conditions. In addition, a novice grower should seriously approach the choice of a place, planting technology and subsequent care. In addition, the timing of planting is important.

In the south, planting raisins is best done in autumn. The right time is the first decade of October. So that the young plant does not suffer from winter frosts, it is sprinkled with earth and covered with non-woven material folded in several layers.

In the middle lane and in the northern regions, raisins are planted in the spring (April, May). Planting can be carried out when the soil warms up to 12 °. You need to have time to plant the raisins before the buds have blossomed. For those who purchased raisins grown in a container, it is easier. They can plant grapes in June.

Grapes grow well in higher elevations, but not every garden plot has them. The southern or southwestern part of the garden will do. It is good if from the north the plantings are protected from the wind by a wall or hedge. Main conditions:

• good lighting;
• lack of wind and drafts;
• distance 3 m to other plants (trees, bushes) and buildings.

Landing

Greenhouse seedlings before planting

Before proceeding with planting and digging a hole, you need to prepare:

1. Drainage (broken brick, crushed stone, gravel).
2. Support count.
3. Mineral fertilizers (superphosphate).
4. Humus.
5. Ashes.

Dig a planting hole 70 cm deep and 70 cm wide. Pour a 25 cm layer of drainage at the bottom. Add 2-3 buckets of humus, a glass of superphosphate and ½ a bucket of ash to the garden soil, which will be backfilled.

Drive a stake into the center of the hole, fill in the prepared soil and form a hole for the seedling in it. It should be so deep that only 2 eyes stick out above the ground. The landing pit is filled with water. The growing shoots must be tied to a support.

Care

A row of the Radiant variety in the garden

Pruning... An important point in caring for grapes. The yield and health of the vine depends on how competently it is carried out. The norm of eyes on the vine is from 8 to 12, excess shoots must be cut off. Cut out weak branches. Carry out rationing - leave 1-2 bunches on each shoot.

Watering... If the weather is hot, water the raisins every 3 days. One plant needs at least 4 buckets of water, more water is needed if the soil is sandy.2 weeks before harvesting, water once every 7 days.

Top dressing... In the spring and in the first half of summer, grapes need fertilizing containing nitrogen, and organic fertilizers will not interfere. In the second half of summer, the plant needs potassium and phosphorus to form fruit. Nitrogen feeding is stopped.

In addition to root dressing with mineral and organic fertilizers, foliar dressings are needed. Conduct them during the flowering period of grapes. Use the drug Ovary. Apply a gibberellin stimulant to increase the size of the berries and increase the density of the bunch.

Diseases and pests

Leaf disease Kishmish

Vine plantations often suffer from fungal infections. For their prevention several times per season, it is necessary to process the bushes. Copper sulfate and Bordeaux liquid should be used in early spring and autumn after harvest.

In summer, it is better to use complex preparations for processing:

• Ridomil Gold;
• Strobe.

When white bloom appears on the leaves and stems of the raisins (symptoms of powdery mildew), treat the grapes with Topaz.

Insecticides may be needed if spider mites or other pests attack the raisins. In the summer, the crop often suffers from wasps. To protect the berries from them, the vineyard is fumigated with smoke or special bags are put on the bunches.

Reviews

Svetlana (Rostov region)

I recommend growing Ainset Seedlis grapes. This is a very worthy variety. In our conditions, it ripens in early August. Can be left on the bushes. The grapes do not lose their flavor. We make dessert wine from it, dry it. The harvest is big, enough for everything. There are no problems with this variety. It tolerates frost well, does not get sick.

Alexander (Oryol)

Kishmish No. 342 ripens in early August. Children are delighted with him. The berries are small but very sweet. The bushes are powerful, do not get sick. I do the treatment twice for prevention. I want to plant two more vines for drying on raisins.

Gregory. (Novoaleksandrovsk)

We grow Rusbol. The bushes are tall, powerful, and productive. I like the taste, harmonious. The berries are medium rather than large. The color is white, the taste is sweet. The average weight of a bunch is 400 g.

Vladimir (Belgorod)

Jupiter is considered the best seedless grape. I have about 60 bushes growing. I successfully trade it on the market. Satisfied with everything: yield, frost resistance, taste, appearance, lack of cracks on ripe berries. Small bunches are not a disadvantage.

Igor (Voronezh)

I successfully grow Radiant raisins. I think that in terms of taste, this is one of the best varieties. The bunches grow large, marketable.

Walking next to the garden, it is impossible not to pay attention to some exotic fruit. And the thought immediately comes, or maybe think to buy flowers from home? If it all started with positive feelings, then the whole working day goes better and with minimal stress. Growing a garden is a very favorite hobby that will give a pleasant mood not only to your family but also to many neighbors. A flower garden is the perfect addition to any design.

The difference is the larger berries 5-6 g, with a nutmeg taste when overripe, oval, with a pointed tip, of a beautiful pink color. Large bunches of 500-700 gr and more, medium density. The crop can hang on the bushes for a long time without loss of quality. In some years, rudiments may be felt in the berries. Bushes vigorous, early-medium ripening. Resistance to mildew 3 points (requires prophylactic treatments). Wasps are practically not affected.

Nizina 2 (Ninel) The growers did not have time to decide which is better - Nina or Nizina, as Krainov brought Nizina 2. A very marketable market variety of early-middle or medium ripening period. Large clusters of 1-1.5 kg and berries of 12-15 g contribute greatly to this.Light nutmeg taste - "mows" under the cherry, although many like some sourness. Sugar content 17-18%, acidity 8-9 g / l. Another drawback is that the berries are light purple. The buyer prefers a golden color. But still, transportability and marketability are on top. A hybrid of medium ripening (125-135 days), vigorous. Withstands frosts down to -23 degrees. Disease resistance at the level of 3-3.5 points. Resistant to cracking, but damaged by wasps. Lies well, until the New Year. During the maturation process, the taste improves.

Black Kishmish AZOS Black Kishmish AZOS of medium ripening is very interesting. The bunches are large, loose, 700 g each. The berries are even larger than those of Veles - 6 g, rounded, dark purple. The skin is firm. The pulp is fleshy, seedless. The yield is decent - 7-8 kg per bush, which is almost a record for raisins. Moreover, this variety is highly resistant to fungal diseases, pests, frost. The tasting score is high 8.2 points. So there are also unpretentious large raisins. There is something to replace the old arbor varieties.

American Venus There are other varieties. For example, the frost-resistant, unpretentious Venus. Why is he so good? I liked the scent the most. But there is a drawback - a thick skin. Venus is very hardy. Keeps frosts down to -27 degrees. That is, it can be grown in the South without covering it in a gazebo formation instead of the fed up Isabella. Moreover, the size of the berries he has is not less - the same 3 g. It is resistant to diseases, only the clusters are small - 200 g each. But the seedless class is 1.

Variety "Rusbol" The old seedless variety "Rusbol" seems to be quite good. And it is relatively resistant to diseases and tastes good, but it still has bones (albeit soft). It is also necessary to guess with the collection - overripe, it becomes sugary-sweet, the berries quickly become boring and the berries crumble strongly. All these shortcomings apply to its American counterpart - "Romulus".

Kishmish grape varieties

Kishmish grapes

The raisin variety is becoming more and more popular with consumers. It is pleasant to eat it fresh, to dry it, it is safe for children and diabetics (no more than a spoon per day). High requirements are imposed on this type of grape: it should not contain any formations resembling seeds, but if a variety has a certain amount of underdeveloped seeds, this does not mean that it is not seedless. Depending on the size of the rudiments, all raisins are divided into 4 groups.

Ripening period. Very early, very early, early, early middle, medium, medium late and very late.

Landing. In autumn, before the arrival of frost, or in spring, before budding from the sunny side. The soil can be any, but it is preferable - humus-rich black soil. The seedlings are placed in a pit 65-70 cm deep, fertilized and watered abundantly.

Pruning. Held in the fall. 50-80% of the growth is removed, which has a beneficial effect on the amount of the crop.

Care. Many varieties are problem-free, however, they still need minimal care: regular watering (once every 10 days), fertilizing with mineral fertilizers, and fragments of weak shoots.

Grapes Kishmish Zaporozhye - picture abundance

If you are an artist looking for inspiration for a still life, Kishmish Zaporozhye grapes will serve as the perfect muse! Luxurious, spreading brushes with small berries of dark purple color are even a pity to pluck from the vine. However, further enjoyment is worth it!

it belongs to very early and early varieties - ripening th. That is, you will receive the harvest of this table grapes already in August.

Raisins, juices and even compotes are made from it.However, it is most delicious to eat fresh grapes, since one bunch is enough for several people. No joke, this variety contains clusters weighing 1.5-2 kg! Ordinary brushes weigh up to 900 grams.

Each berry is relatively small, weighing up to 3 grams. The variety belongs to the III-IV class of seedless, which in practice means the presence of small rudiments of seeds. According to the growers themselves, who dealt with him, year after year does not happen - some harvests are completely without rudiments, some with practically formed seeds.

The color of the berries is noble shades of red and purple. The brush has a conical shape, but in good years everything will be loose, with several “wings”. It is not for nothing that experts say that the variety of Zaporizhzhya Kishmish is prone to overload, therefore, in the spring, you should very carefully lay the future harvest.

It is strange to hear when experienced winegrowers attribute their bad experience with a variety solely to the lack of a variety.

And what is a lack of agricultural technology, when it is edible on my site about once every three years? Vasily Ivanovich, if you picked up the "key" to the KZ? Please share 🙂 This is no sarcasm. If, in my conditions, it would be possible to make the KZ really seedless, then with its beauty, resistance to disease and frost, it would probably grow in every yard.

Gebberelin, like Oleg Marmuta, did not try. If the site does not sell, then in 2011 it will be necessary to try, maybe this will turn out to be the "key".

Reportedly, in the north, KZ and Rusbol are more often seedless than southerners. But that won't help me: unknw:

Andrii

If we compare Kishmish 342, K-m Zaporizhzhya, Rusbol and Kesha seedless of those that I tried at the exhibition in Riga, then the smallest rudiments were in Kesha seedless, in K 342 they were also such that they are practically not felt, in K. Zaporizhzhya and Rusbol the rudiments were palpable enough but not fatal.

To Kesh's taste, seedless turned out to be the most delicious; according to Girts, it ripens about 2 weeks earlier than Rusbol and Zaporozhye.

The Zaporozhye did not like the tartness of the skin.

There were also unique Kishmish, ChBZ, Relines, Ainset and K. radiant and similar in appearance but not ripe Somerset siddis, which is strange for me, it was ready on my lawn on August 28,

and at the exhibition in Riga I was on September 19.

There are no complaints about the radiant, but it will not go into the open ground with me.

Rylines and Ainset with normal sugar (16 and 18) but the consistency gives the impression that they are not quite ripe,

I did not notice any rudiments, perhaps because of the slippery flesh, Ainset has a thick and sour skin, and there is a little aftertaste characteristic of Labrus (perhaps it was really not yet ripe?), but in general, these 2 varieties have an interesting and good taste.

ChBZ tastes good, but perhaps not quite ripe berries have a slightly pungent taste.

K. unique had decent rudiments, normal taste.

When the goat ate enough leaves, it got drunk, bleated, jumped and butted. Noah became interested in this plant and made a plantation. According to legend, the Transcaucasia and the Mediterranean countries became the birthplace of grapes.

The grapes were created by natural mutation through vegetative propagation. Later, due to selection, many varieties with developed seeds appeared. Every year, such grapes are popular, as they contain many vitamins and minerals.

According to the legend, having descended Mount Ararat, Noy found grapes there.
