Detailed Explanation of Crimson Seedless Grape Cultivation Techniques and Management Methods
It is advisable to choose deep, fertile, loose soil with good drainage, such as sandy loam, for planting. Planting can be done in early February in spring or at the end of October in autumn. Apply sufficient base fertilizer and plant at a spacing of 1m*3m between plants and rows. After planting, water thoroughly and cover with plastic film. Water during dry seasons. Young trees in the planting year need 3-4 topdressings. Properly carry out bud removal, pinching, tendril removal, and pruning. To prevent pests and diseases, spray 1 time with lime sulfur mixture before budding.
Crimson Seedless grape is another new seedless grape variety introduced in California, USA, after the Red Globe grape. In 1997, it was introduced to China by the grape new variety project research group of the Ministry of Agriculture. This variety has conical clusters, neat and compact berries, oval and slightly elongated berries, bright and translucent color, vivid bloom, light red flesh, firm flesh, and crisp texture that can be sliced.
Crimson Seedless grape has extremely strong stress resistance. Diseases prevalent in China such as downy mildew, white rot, anthracnose, and powdery mildew have very weak harmful effects on Crimson Seedless, and it is very storage-resistant and transport-resistant. It begins to mature in mid-September. After maturity, it can remain on the plant for 1—2 months. After picking, clusters that are undamaged and free of pests and diseases can be completely stored under natural conditions until New Year's Day and the Spring Festival.
