Apple-tree Rossosh striped - description and characteristics
The crimson August apples, which appear on an apple tree at an age, owe their characteristics to the parent varieties that were used for hybridization. As a result of successful cross-pollination and combining varieties with a large amount of yield, this apple variety was obtained.

- - a large amount of harvest.
- - simple agricultural technology.
A late ripening variety of apples makes it possible to harvest fruits before the cold weather in the winter season. Such a crop is distinguished by a long storage time: apples are kept in a wooden container for a long time.

The apple tree grows throughout our country, even in regions with unstable climatic conditions. Fruits with a long shelf life are considered a decorative element of any plot, especially during flowering or harvesting.
The pollinating varieties for this variety of apples are breeding works similar in characteristics. This means that fruit trees must have the same time of flowering and harvesting. Cross-pollination will improve the characteristics of the crop - apples grow tasty with a lot of juice.

Apple-tree Rossoshanskoe striped: planting
This variety has a planting habitual for apple trees. Initially, a planting hole is dug, in which the planting material is placed. A planting pit is prepared from the autumn season or at least two weeks before the planned planting.
The optimal choice is seedlings at the age of two. They are grafted and immediately after planting in fresh air they quickly adapt. Such seedlings are quite persistent, with a strong root system, a couple of shoots, but there is still no full-fledged foliage.
A good planting material will not break, its roots do not fall off, there are no spots and signs of the presence of the disease. Apple trees at one year of age are more difficult to plant - they may not survive when carrying out basic procedures in the fall season in areas with cold winter seasons.
Time
Planting of a fruit tree of this variety is carried out in the spring or autumn season, the scheme for these seasons is identical. The differences in such landings are:
- - spring season. After warming up the soil variety by at least ten centimeters, planting is carried out. With this option, the planting material adapts and does not freeze. It is necessary to have time before the formation of ovaries on apple trees at an age, so that the young also have time to bloom. Landing in the spring season is less difficult and harmful. The seedling manages to germinate, adapt before the onset of cold weather.
- - autumn season.Easy, but not secure, disembarkation. If the planting material is purchased and the seedling cannot stand until the spring season, then immediately after harvesting the fruits, a planting hole is dug on the site. It is nourished and moisturized in the same way as in the spring season. Distinctive features of planting in the fall are that it is carried out without the establishment of regular agricultural technology. The apple tree is immediately prepared for the winter season. Before the onset of cold weather, it should be at least thirty days, otherwise the planting material is likely to suffer.
Landing also depends on what conditions the summer resident creates for a young apple tree. If they did not buy shelter for the winter season, the seedling dies. The same can happen in the spring, if you do not regularly feed and moisturize during the summer season. The apple tree grows identically, regardless of the time of planting.
Scheme
Initially, a landing hole is prepared. This hole will provide the seedling with the necessary nutrients. The placement of the landing hole depends on the landing pattern:
- - single disembarkation implies free space, up to approximately five hundred centimeters wide.
- - in industrial areas, about three hundred to four hundred centimeters are left for apple trees.
- - the shape of the crown is corrected after two to three years, this makes it possible to reduce the occupied space.
- - the recommended option for all kinds of landings, approximately three hundred and fifty to four hundred centimeters between planting materials.
For this variety of apples, a planting hole is made at least eighty centimeters in depth and one hundred centimeters in breadth. Immediately after this procedure, the planting fossa is fertilized. Organic fertilizing with natural ingredients that enrich the soil is used. To do this, use compost or humus. Use at least five to six centimeters of material.
After that, the landing hole is not touched for about a week. Then the top layer of soil is dug up with humus. The landing hole is not used for another seven days.
At the time of planting, a crushed stone drainage layer is used. These procedures are required when groundwater is located close. They will not help the planting material, but only harm, the liquid washes out nutrients from the root system.
The planting material is installed in the hole, and fresh soil is poured up. The landing hole is moistened with approximately five to seven liters of fluids.
Apple-tree Rossosh striped: care
Delicious apples are the result of correct farming techniques. It is in it that growing planting material needs, as well as an aged apple tree. Agrotechnics consists of:
- - loosening of the soil - it is carried out before moistening and feeding the soil in order to increase the throughput.
- - weeding of the territory - the less weed, the stronger the root system.
- - moisture is the main part of agricultural technology, it allows the apple tree to grow, bring a large amount of harvest and winter well.
- - fertilizer - only top dressing are considered sources of nutrients and substances.
- - preventive procedures, provide high immunity of the apple tree.
The taste of the crop depends on a specific regime. Crown pruning is performed twice every twelve months. These are necessary procedures to guarantee the growth of the tree and its long life. The first pruning is done in the spring season, when the winter apple tree recovers.
Uneven twigs are trimmed to shape the crown. In the autumn season, sanitary measures are taken. This allows infected and dry branches to be removed. Then the apple trees are sheltered for the winter season. Apply a mulching layer.
Moistening and fertilizing the soil
For humidification, use up to six containers of liquid. Watering the soil is carried out in the evening. For three months, an adult tree needs at least three to four moisture.The liquid is not poured into the planting material under the root, so as not to harm the root system. Humidification is not performed in the winter season.
Fertilizer is produced using organic and mineral fertilizers. Potassium and phosphorus are used. If the mineral fertilizer is suitable for organics, then a seven-day gap is spent between them.
Harvesting and keeping fruits
The first apples can be obtained upon reaching the age of four immediately after planting. The younger the planting material, the further the time of the first harvesting process is transferred. Fruits for young apple trees in small quantities. The annual growth is increasing. If dwarf rootstocks are used, tasty fruits can appear as early as two years of age.
A winter apple tree has a flowering process of no more than thirty days. Fruit harvesting begins at the end of the summer season and continues until the autumn season. The fruits ripen identically. It is recommended to let the apples lie for a while, then it is possible to use them fresh.
Contains ripe fruits until the end of the winter season. If the crop is harvested at the beginning of the fall season, it is possible to harvest it before the start of the spring season. The average time for keeping the fruits of this variety is about one hundred and fifty days.
