General Characteristics
The table grape variety Podarok Shatilova (breeding number 15-03-1) belongs to stable varieties with an early ripening period. The duration of the plant growing season under the conditions of the Orenburg region is 121-125 days, requiring a sum of active temperatures within 2400...2500 °C for ripening. The initial stage of vine fruiting is recorded in the third year after planting the saplings in a permanent location in the ground. The grape variety Podarok Shatilova ensures a stable average yield per vine at the level of 8-10 kg. The products are characterized by good technological properties: the transportability and overall shelf life of the grapes are evaluated as good. The tasting score of fresh mature berries is 8.5 points. During the full maturity phase, the sugar content of the berries reaches 14-18%.
Morphological Description of the Grape Variety Podarok Shatilova
- Vine (vegetative system): The mother vine is medium-vigorous by growth strength. The length of the developing vine is on average 2.0-2.2 meters. Upon full maturation, the vine acquires a brown coloration with a specific violet tint in the internodes. The overall level of shoot ripening is 85-90%.
- Leaf: Leaves are of medium size, round, less frequently heart-shaped in form, with a green coloration. The arrangement of the lobes in the area of the petiole sinus is characterized as slightly overlapping. The marginal teeth on the leaves have a shape consisting of straight and convex sides.
- Flower: The flower type is bisexual.
- Bunch: Bunches are formed medium and large in size. The length of an average bunch is within 19-23 cm, and the width is 7-11 cm. The shape of the bunch is cylindric-conical, and the density of the structure is medium-dense. The average weight of an individual bunch varies from 200 to 400 g.
- Berry: Berries are large, bluntly egg-shaped. The length of the berries is 17-22 mm, and the average weight of an individual berry ranges from 3.5 to 4.1 g. The coloration of the berries is dark violet. The skin is thin, easily edible when bitten.
- Pulp and seeds: The berry pulp is juicy, with a simple harmonious taste. Inside the berry, seeds are contained in an amount of 2-3 pcs., which are easily separated from the pulp during eating. The seed is medium in size.
Agrotechnical Features
The grape variety Podarok Shatilova demonstrates a high rooting score of cuttings, which facilitates vegetative propagation. For training the vines, a fan-shaped trunkless vine training system is recommended. The optimal technological load per vine is 45-50 buds. Phenological phases of vegetation in the Orenburg region take place within the following calendar dates: bud burst is noted in the first decade of May, the beginning of flowering is in the first decade of June, the beginning of berry ripening is in the third decade of July, and the onset of full crop maturity is recorded in the third decade of August. The grape variety Podarok Shatilova possesses a high level of adaptation to the continental climate, its frost resistance is down to -27 °C. The plants exhibit complex resistance: the variety is resistant to major diseases and pests, and the indicators of drought resistance and heat tolerance are evaluated as high. The main direction of utilizing the harvested crop is table use (consumption of berries in a fresh state and commercial realization).
