Apple's variety Medicarians appreciate the ruddy and very sweet fruits, which are good both in fresh form and as part of the dessert. A rich harvest is kept at the beginning of autumn, and then in the garden you can feel an amazing spicy honey fragrance. Apples medberia caramelized, and also stuffing and baked, make refreshing drinks and jam.
How did the median variety
The apple tree Medican is the result of a successful selection, which was first spoke in the middle of the past century. We are pleasant to the taste of fruits. Today, we are obliged to scientist S. I. Isaev, who as a "parental" material used the cinnamon striped variety and the variety of Welly. The unique taste of the derived variety caused the association with the aroma of the spring flower of meduse - so the tree is called and now.
Advantages of culture
The summer apple tree Medica is one of the most harvest varieties: the abundance of sweet fruit its owners are rejoiced at the end of August. The tree is self-visible, so for the successful stocking of fruit needs the neighborhood of other varieties. The most suitable pollinators for Apple Medicarians are recognized by Anis Sverdlovsky, White Pouring, Victory Chernenko and Bellefler-Chinese.
The summer median adapted to Russian harsh winters well, therefore it grows in many regions of our state: in southern territories and in the middle strip and sometimes occurs in the northern regions. By the way, this grade loves Ukrainian and Belarusian gardeners.
Fruits of summer medusers are just tasty, and after a short storage, their taste is becoming even more pronounced. Fruits are well saved for 1.5 - 2 months in the basement, and the refrigerator increases this period for another 1 month.
The mid-departure winter apple tree Medicarian regularly and quickly fruits, bringing medium yield. The taste of her yellow-green apples marked with a reddish blurred blush on the sunny side, unplaced-sweet. The fruits are well saved until March, but long-term storage kills their taste. In winter meduse, high rates of winter hardiness and resistance to such a common disease, like a passage.
Apple Keeping: Description
In the garden, where the median is growing, you will meet high trees that decorate rarefied crowns with a wide base, in shape remotely resembling a pyramid. Their branches diverge in all directions under an acute angle from the trunk. Light brown shoots are covered with dense and rude to the touch by leaves of different sizes. On each curved center, the leaf can be seen blurred, similar to embossing, drawing. The medianship has an impressive and very branched root system, which will always save from excessive moisturizing soil, so closely arranged soil waters do not confuse. Its maximum height of 8-10 meters apple trees reaches when it turns 4 - 5 years.
But the main pride of the tree is its fruits: not large, very juicy, painted in the citric and yellow color of the apple weigh no more than 150 g. It is typical for them, the yellow-green color is considered, which often dilutes a well-pronounced blush with red and brownish strokes. Fruits on branches have different shades, therefore it is uneven and not falling to the ground. Admire the sweet adornment of apple medusers in the photo:
Only the accepted seedling will begin to give a crop of 5 years later. The average fruction rate is approximately 180 kg per tree. For 10 years, abundant meduse harvests will delight you annually, then the crop periods will be alternate with low-cycle.
The advantages and disadvantages of meduse
Among the positive qualities of the varieties can be noted as follows:
- Early maturation.
- Annual rich harvest.
- High indices of winter hardiness.
- Natural immunity from pasta and fruit rot.
- A pronounced flavor of honey and fragrant smell of fruits.
- A small amount of sugar in the apple.
- A long shelf life for a summer apple tree.
Of the flaws of the fruit we note:
- Large tree sizes due to spicy crown.
- Uneven ripening of fruits.
- Problems of collecting ripe fruits without crown formation.
Apple tree landing
All gardeners unanimously recognized the Medunication with a completely non-pecked tree, but certain nuances during her landing need to be taken into account.
To understand when it is best to plant a tree, focus on the characteristics of the climatic zone where it will grow. In the central and southern latitudes of our country, the most suitable time to planting a medpet is considered the end of September - the beginning of November. At the same time, it is necessary to choose the most suitable moment so that frosts come no earlier than 2 weeks after the tree planting. In the spring of medusers, residents of minor areas and those sites are engaged in the inhabitants where the soil waters approach the surface of the soil close enough.
Honey grade will feel good in an open place where no sheets will not be out of the sunlight.
Laying the garden, you must certainly remember the large size of a branched plant. This means that the apple cloth seedlings need to be located on the site in such a way that the trees that every year will scatter their branches more and more, received a sufficient amount of light and felt comfortable among the fellow. The approximate distance between the apple trees of one row should be at least 4.5 m, and the distance between the rows themselves is at least 5 m.
Apple tree Medicarial is easily leaving on fertile, "breathable" oxygen soils. Most of all, it is suitable for water permeable loams with good drainage indicators. In the landing point, the sizes of which must be twice the root of the seedling, fall asleep fertilizer and soil mixture. After that, the apple tree does not sit immediately - you need to wait for the introduced Earth, and the manure will decompose. Also, the soil around the landing pit is drunk in advance so that it will be with oxygen, and this will undoubtedly be a seedliness for the benefit.
When landing, the root neck of the young tree does not completely cover the earth - it should rise at 8 - 10 cm above the soil surface. It just landed the village is necessarily watered, consuming 2 - 3 buckets of water (the moisturity of the Earth does not have the values). Then the seedling must be tied to the peg located nearby - so the tree will have the next two years. Such support will help the young medullae to stand under the onslaught of wind, rain and snow, while maintaining a smooth trunk.
Care of apple tree Medunication
Hospitable soil and comfortable weather conditions are not all that this type of apple tree is needed for good growth and abundant fruiting. Wood need caring and competent care.
The median needs an annual trimming, because it is deservedly considered a strong-star tree. The procedure is carried out in March after the kidneys will be formulated and dissolved. Next, during the year, trimming branches is regulating. This is one of the main points of care for the sweet apple tree, since regular trimming is positively affected by the amount of crop.
A prolonged drought becomes a reason for watering trees. On average, one apple tree consumes up to 5 buckets of water. Excessive stable soil moisture causes the root system of the medpetism, and also affects the decline in the taste of its fruits.
Features of feeding apple median
Fertilizers and regular feeding - in the list of basic requirements of fruit tree. Suggesting the soil with the arrival of the first spring days is always included in the mandatory medical care program. At this time of the year, young trees especially need support to grow more actively. For this purpose, the portion of liquid urea is made under the root prepared at the rate of 50 g per 10 liters of water. In the summer, in early June, the turn of the extractive feeding is suitable - the apple tree is sprayed with a solution of sodium humate. The last feeder expects a meduse in September. This time 60 g of superphosphate divorced in 10 liters of water is used. This is a scheme of feeding "green" trees that have not yet fruited.
A completely different principle of apple tree fertilizer was built, which produce yields annually. So that the tree grew well and at the same time gave healthy and delicious fruits, for one season it is satisfied with 4 feeders:
- at the end of April, it is poured under each apple tree and close up 500 g of carbonade in granules;
- before the start of flowering - in 20 liters of water, 100 g of superphosphate, 80 g of potassium sulfate, 50 g of carbonade and insist this mixture for one week;
- after completion of flowering - the third feeder is carried out using a mixture of 100 g of nitroposki and 2 g of dry humate divorced in 20 liters of water;
- after harvesting - each apple tree fertility (1 bucket) and 300 g of potassium sulfate and superphosphate.
Please note that dry fertilizers contribute to the depth of the bayonet in the area of \u200b\u200bthe priority circle. With the help of nitrogen root feeding in the form of urea, chicken litter and manure stimulate the growth and development of branches, but in the second half of July, this procedure refuses the branches to finally repenter to the arrival of the first frosts.
In order for the apple trees faster and without a residue, nitrogen absorbed, they are abundantly watered before and after making fertilizers. The volume of water is normalized. For example, a tree, which turned 5 years old, watered 50 liters of water, bring 5 buckets of liquid feeding, then water the second time the same amount of water.
Responsible care, regular watering and the introduction of mandatory fertilizers - the key to the rapid growth and successful development of apple median.
Appleal protection in winter
With the approach of the cold, each owner of the apple orchard faces a number of problems that need to be solved quickly and in a timely manner, because the health of trees and the prospect of high yields.
First, it is necessary to take measures against the frostbite of the trees. Strong frosts can cause the whole garden to die. Temperature injury can even receive frost-resistant trees. The most vulnerable site of the apple tree is a stack. This part must be inspired: "dress" tool or runner. For reliability under the material placed a layer of burlap.
Secondly, you need to think about how to resist the invasion of mice. The easiest way to prepare and meet the omnipresent rodents to poisonous baits. By placing "delicacies" in the garden, be sure to hide them under the shocks - a sensitive mouse nose is dealt with them, and birds will not notice and, therefore, will not suffer.
Thirdly, no one has canceled visiting your garden by voracious hares. It is easier to lean the "oblique" from eating a bark using a barbed wire, which is wrapped with a vulnerable stack. Most animals will stop the metal obstacle, but this technique will not work against acute beavers. So that all the trees remain safe, the fences around each apple tree are set up with a height of about 1 m. The material for such a fence is a rubber grid. To give a protective barrier an aesthetic look, some gardeners paint it with green paint.
How to protect the monument from diseases and pests
The apple tree varieties Medicarians proven itself as a healthy strong tree, resistant to the harmful effects of many diseases and pests, but in adverse conditions it can get sick. To prevent potential danger, you need to take timely preventive measures.
So, for example, it is very important to bleach the trunk of a tree every fall and spring - this simple procedure will not allow fungus, rotting and small insects to the apple bark. If you neglect the elementary inspection and gardening, the leaves of trees can disfigure dark marks of the past. In order to prevent a serious infectious disease, it will take a solution of ammonium nitrate of 10%. The chemical agent is treated with an apple tree circle.
When the kidneys blooms, the tree is irrigated by the Bordeaux liquid (solution 1 - 3%). Repeated processing are carried out after the completion of the flowering of the apple tree. Hot summer for garden treatment can be used carbonate and containing fungicides copper.
Apple tree Medunication love and respect her exclusivity: even without having a very sweet and juicy and juicy fruit. This is a favorite delicacy of many adults and children.
