How to Plant Red Globe Grape Seeds? A Detailed Guide to Growing Red Globe Seeds
The red grape is also known as the “Red Globe” grape. It was introduced to China for cultivation in 1987, and is mainly grown in Shaanxi, Xinjiang, Jiangsu and other places. This grape variety has excellent quality, high yield and good taste. So, how do you plant red grape seeds?
1. How to plant red grape seeds
Potted grapes have strong adaptability to soil, and fertile sandy loam is the most suitable. Then dry the mature grape seeds and sow them directly into the prepared potting soil, cover with 50mm of soil, and water an appropriate amount. When choosing a pot, it is best to choose a ceramic pot with a diameter of 35 to 50 cm and good drainage and air permeability. Later, keep up with the watering, and they can sprout in less than half a month.
2. Cultivation techniques
1. Reasonable orchard establishment
(1) The pollution-free cultivation area for red grapes must be free of atmospheric, water resource and other pollution, and have a good water and air environment.
(2) The terrain should be relatively high, preferably sloping land, facing the sun, well ventilated, with no large buildings around blocking it, with slightly dry soil and good irrigation conditions.
(3) Sandy loam soil, with no harmful heavy metal ions in the soil, such as Pb(2+), Hg(2+) and other ions harmful to human health, and a low groundwater level (below 10m).
(4) Red grape clusters are divided into two types: loose type and dense type. Choose the loose type, so that the gaps between berries are large and the chance of disease is reduced.
(5) The density should be small to improve ventilation and light transmission and reduce disease factors. You can choose a plant spacing of 1.5m and a row spacing of 6m.
2. Fertilizer and water management
Adhere to the fertilizer and water management principles of generous fertilizer with appropriate water, reasonable nitrogen application, and increasing the proportion of phosphorus and potassium.
There are 4 times of fertilizing and watering in a year that are relatively important: water and fertilize at the time of budding. Fertilize and water during the grape berry growth period and coloring period. Fertilize and water before freezing. The freezing fertilizer is applied and watered in autumn, and this fertilization and watering determines the growth of the grapes in the 2nd year.
