What kind is it?
The Ruby Anniversary is a hybrid table subspecies. Table hybrids also include the Dawn of Nesvetaya, Korinka Russian and Ataman Pavlyuk.
The term of ripening crop is early-medium. The berries ripen by the end of August, but it is better to wait until mid-September, then remove.
The point here is not only in sugar accumulation - it turns out that the Ruby Jubilee is painted in a “mature” color much earlier than the berries will acquire all the qualities that are inherent in mature grapes.
It is used in bouquets of red table and dessert wines, but it is good and fresh, thanks to its sweetness and rich, revealing taste with tangible muscat, pink and strawberry notes.
Velika, Krasa Balka and Romeo can also boast excellent taste.
It is in great demand among buyers, not only because of its beauty and sweetness, but also the extraordinary stability of fruits to storage and transportation.
Often gardeners confuse Ruby jubilee with Anyuta early, considering that it is the same variety. But this is not the case, even by the outward sign - the clusters of the Ruby Jubilee are saturated red, and Anyuta is an early - golden-pink. Yes, and it ripens earlier.
Pharaohs, Sangiovese, Early Purple and Rochefort also have an early ripening period.

Diseases and pests
This "symbol of love" necessarily needs protection from wasps. Therefore, it is necessary to pack bunches in special mesh bags. They will give access to the sun and fresh air, but will not allow striped invaders to the berries.
Good use is also sticky bait, preferably odorless. All wasp families and “family estates” found on the site must be destroyed.
In this case, note that the wasps just love to build their nests in the hollow tubes that hold the bushes. Therefore, all these holes will have to be repaired.
Birds will also be stopped by the net - only not fishing, but rigid and fine-meshed. The bird does not get tangled in it and just flies away.
It will be necessary to spray a bush from Grazworm's wormhole.
These weevils devour in the most direct sense everything that they see, and that they do not eat, then they eat, and your harvest will not be needed by anyone: it will either dry up or rot.
Therefore, we spray the bushes with chemicals - these include Tsimbush, Tokution, Sevin, Tsidial, Sumicidin, Ekamet, Fozalon. Light traps against weevilous pinworms are ineffective, and, as a rule, males "peck" at them.
Do not forget also about preventive measures against rubella, chlorosis, anthracnose and bacteriosis. They never hurt and will avoid many troubles.
Everything that is based on love is worth a lot. The Ruby Jubilee will live for a long time, including on your site.
You just need to not be lazy, take care of it, shelter for the winter months, spray it from pests, put nets and wasps off the birds - and then both you and everyone who comes to your house will enjoy both the beauty of the clusters and the wonderful berries and home. wine.
