The best varieties of autumn apple trees

When talking about apple varieties, be sure to there are different assessments of their belonging to the maturation group. For the buyer and lover of apples, there are:

• summer (early);
• autumn;
• winter (late).

 
Specialists of the Timiryazev Agricultural Academy conducted interesting tests of apples created by Russian breeders. In nine groups:

• Summer:
  • Early;
  • Average;
  • Late.
• Autumn:
  • Early;
  • Average;
  • Late.
• Winter:
  • Early;
  • Average;
  • Late.

Evaluated according to the selected five features. Maximum score for each 5 points:

• Winter hardiness;
• Weight;
• Productivity;
• Taste;
• Scab disease resistance.

This could be one approach for evaluating apple varieties. But there are conventions in this scheme as well.

Autumn varieties of apple trees

Which variety is considered autumn? Main criteria:

• Bright and beautiful skin color of autumn apples;
• Quite large size;
• Ripening terms. And this is in early September;
• Storage periods:
  • Average between summer and winter;
  • 2-3 months even at room temperatures.
• And I would add one more point - in which region it is grown.

Consider one more point. The same variety can be called in different groups:

• Late summer or early autumn;
• Late autumn or early winter. Antonovka. Anise. Welsey. And others;
• But for lovers of delicious apples, it is not worth focusing much on this. They are called differently. But the ripening period is the same;
• Indeed, even the climatic conditions of a particular year can shift the ripening dates. As well as caring for the cultivation.

Significant warming has occurred over the past decades. That also reduced the ripening time not only for apples. But ripening guidelines and bookmarks for storage are – from the beginning of September until 23-25. Your experience and knowledge will help determine their maturity. Very often a neighbor is a good reference point.

An amateur gardener on his plot of 6 acres can afford a little. And for planting apple trees, experts and connoisseurs recommend 1-2 early varieties, 1-2 varieties from autumn, but winter ones - 3-5. More site means more opportunities.

And they will also propose to allocate 2-3 decorative apple trees for the design of the recreation area. Small-fruited (Chinese women, ranetki, weeping, etc.). Today, after all, the apple tree is also planted as a decorative one to decorate plots near houses of different sizes.

Harvesting is worth it finally ripe, since unripe fruits will not have characteristic taste, and during storage they can wither, but not ripen. But ripe fruits will have the best taste after two to three months of lying.

Gardeners want apple trees to bear fruit until late autumn and keep them longer. The autumn varieties of apple trees bred by breeders have become such a golden mean.But it turned out to be not easy to choose a variety that will satisfy both the taste and the timing of the harvest.

Basic rules for growing autumn apple trees

The apple tree is an unpretentious culture, but in order for it to please the eye of the gardener for a long time, it needs to create certain conditions. There are several basic rules, if followed, you will get a big harvest.

Table: we select the conditions for growing apple trees

Planting an apple tree seedling

We follow the simple rule of planting apple tree seedlings. All fruit trees love fertilized soil, so we prepare a mixture of soil and a complex of organic and mineral fertilizers:

1. The bottom of the planting pit is loosened and a peg is stuck in the middle so that it rises 50–80 cm above ground level.
2. The pit is filled with fertile soil from the topsoil removed from the planting pit and fertilizers. Add 2-3 buckets of manure, humus or compost, 800 g of ash, 1 kg of complex mineral fertilizer and 300 g of lime to the ground. Organic fertilizers should be the main source of fertilization for the planting pit.
3. All components are thoroughly mixed.
4. From above, the planting pit is covered with soil that was dug from the bottom of the planting pit. To prevent scalding of the roots of an apple tree seedling in contact with fertilizers, the upper part of the pit is covered with ordinary soil without any additives.
5. Fill the hole before the formation of the hill, since the soil shrinks over time and the seedling may end up in the funnel. This will reduce the yield and winter hardiness of the apple tree.
6. Once again, inspect the roots of the apple tree sapling for damage and rot. If there are any, they should be removed, the sections should be sprinkled with ash.
7. The tree is planted so that the root collar is slightly above ground level (3-4 cm). The root collar is the conditional border of the transition of the root system into the trunk, it is located 3-4 cm above the first branch of the root. It can be recognized by the transition of the dark roots to the lighter trunk.
8. Water the seedling with 5 liters of water.

When digging a planting hole, you need to fold the top layer of soil on one side of it, and the bottom on the other, then it will be easier to properly prepare the ground

Video: how to plant an apple tree seedling

If there is a substrate left after planting, then they can form rollers along the contour of the planting pit, they will help when watering the plant, preventing the water from spreading.

Watering the apple tree

Watering this plant is required once a week, taking into account the correct planting. On dry days, the watering rate should be increased. Watering the apple tree correctly, you need to remember that an adult tree needs 50 liters of water per 1 sq. m crown projection.

If, during planting, a roller is formed from the remaining soil, it can be transformed into a trough, along which it is more convenient to water the plants

The apple tree has extensive superficial roots and it is wrong to water close to the trunk. Water the apple tree at a distance of at least 50 cm from the trunk.

Loosening apple trees

For young apple trees, soil aeration 1-2 times a month is relevant. For mature trees, once every 2 months is enough. When loosening, you need to remember that the root system of the apple tree is very fragile. Be careful not to loosen deeper than 20 cm and do not use the cultivator near the plant.

For convenience, when loosening the soil, you can and even need to use a pitchfork

We fertilize the apple trees correctly

If the planting conditions are met, then in the first 1-2 years the trees do not need to be additionally fertilized. Then, twice a year, the apple tree will need top dressing:

• in the fall - a complex of organic and mineral fertilizers, the basis of which should be superphosphate (200 g per 1 sq. m) and potassium (100 g per 1 sq. m) mixed with 6 kg of compost;
• in spring - nitrogenous fertilizers, for example, urea, ammonium sulfate, ammonium, sodium and calcium nitrate.

Fertilizers are applied, keeping the distance from the trunk in half the crown of the tree, 15 cm deep for young apple trees and 45 cm for adult trees

We form the crown of the apple tree

For bountiful harvests, one summer pruning per year is sufficient. It will heal the plant and help it protect itself from certain types of insects. Experienced gardeners also carry out autumn and spring pruning of the plant.

For pruning apple trees, a garden pruner, a delimber and sometimes (in exceptional cases) a saw are used: first of all, diseased and old branches are removed

Spraying and treating apple trees for diseases

Before the formation of buds, prophylaxis against diseases and pests is mandatory. It is not recommended to process fruit trees during flowering and fruiting periods. Spray with dormant kidneys and an average air temperature of about + 5 ° C degrees with one of the following drugs: copper sulfate, DNOC (Double Impact), Hom (copper oxychloride), Fufanon-Nova.

It is important that when spraying, the water covers the apple tree, but does not drain from it in streams.

Preparing an apple tree for winter

The apple tree, like all fruit trees, requires care and treatment with antiseptic agents in the autumn. Proper preparation for winter includes a number of actions: watering the tree and mulching the soil, pruning and pest control, whitewashing and insulating the trunk.

You can insulate the root base and the place of the scion with spruce branches or burlap if a snowless winter is expected

Criteria for the selection of autumn varieties of apple trees

The first thing that worries any gardener is the apples themselves: their taste, aroma, appearance, color and size. And if here, as one well-known proverb says, “there is no comrade,” then there are characteristics, without taking into account which the harvest can not be obtained at all. When choosing between one or another apple variety, it is important:

• which region is the variety focused on: each region of Russia has its own climatic conditions and types of soil, therefore it is important to choose the one that corresponds to the place of residence of the gardener;
• what is the period of consumption of the fruits of this variety: it will depend on when you eat apples, whether you can keep them fresh until the New Year, whether they are suitable for homemade preparations, etc.

The period of consumption is made up of the totality of the ripening period and the storage time of the fruit. According to this indicator, autumn varieties of apple trees are divided as follows:

• early autumn (fruiting begins in early or mid-September);
• autumn (from mid to late September);
• late autumn (from early to mid-October);
• early winter (from mid to late October);
• winter (the harvest is harvested in late autumn before frost).

Winter apple varieties are distinguished by a long shelf life, during which they do not lose their taste. Moreover, they usually acquire optimal flavoring properties only after storage for 2–3 weeks.

By the way, apples are divided into several types by taste and purpose. We will not consider the technical ones, we will dwell only on those that are suitable for use. They are like this:

• dessert - due to their high taste characteristics, they are used mainly fresh, they tolerate processing worse, since they lose their characteristic taste and do not keep their shape (boiled, the skin bursts, etc.);
• canteens - the taste characteristics are worse, and the marketable ones are better, therefore they are used mainly for homemade preparations;
• universal - suitable both for fresh consumption and for processing.

The article discusses the most popular autumn varieties of apple trees for different regions of Russia, as well as for Belarus and Ukraine. The table shows the comparative characteristics of the autumn varieties described below.
