Grapes refers to those cultures that like moisture, but due to the fact that he has a pretty long roots that lie at great depths. Some gardeners believe that it is able to produce the bush itself out of the ground water and further water it is not necessary.
Yes, there are in Russia are regions where the amount of seasonal rainfall is enough for the grapes, but these places is not much. My summer cottage stands on dry land, so I always water the grapes and get a good harvest at the end of the season. Next, I will share with you the secret of how I water the grapes to the bunch was complete and fully filled with.
Watering grapes should be started since the spring. The best time - it's April. During this period, it is necessary every bush about 40 liters of water.
This is followed by the month of May. If during this period the weather is dry and there is almost no rainfall, there needs to be another of the watering. You also need to make, and a so-called feeding the bush. For this I use fertilizer per 30 grams per square meter.
An important point: at the beginning of June when the vine begins to bloom, water it is not necessary.
In late June, after withered grapes, there comes a time when the bush maximum amount of moisture required. At the end of June until the end of July this culture needs abundant watering - somewhere 4 times with 50 liters of water.
In late July, the phase of ripening berries themselves, which change color. Watering at this time deniedAs berries must absorb as much sugar as possible.
In late August, early September, the grapes have ripened and gardeners begin to collect it. At this time, there is no point to water the crop.
After the harvest, if there is dry weather, I'm doing a small watering to 30 liters of water on the bush, and that is enough.
In late October, experienced gardeners recommend the last time to water the grapes of 60 liters per bush - it is very beneficial to the vine.
A method of watering grapes
I have repeatedly made sure that the grapes best suited so-called watering special trenches. In this case, the moisture is able to pass to a depth of 80 cm and saturate the bush.
My neighbor uses such a method using plastic pipes which are laid to a depth of 80 cm.
Some gardeners have chosen to drip and then were surprised that their vine vymerz. The thing is that with this method, the water does not get to the roots of the grape itself begins to form their roots near the surface.
The main task when watering - water should be wet all the roots to the full depth of their occurrence. Only in this case, you will be able to get a good crop of grapes.
