You must know how to properly cut the bush Codreanki, and when it is appropriate to do so. The first young sprouts of Codryanka grapes are not pruned in autumn, they are carefully wrapped for the winter .

The goal of planting any plant culture is harvesting. In order for your Codryanka grapes to please every year with a rich harvest, the soil near the plant should be fertilized. Particular attention should be paid to the balance in the soil of potassium and phosphorus. Phosphate fertilizers have a beneficial effect on planted plants, increases the number of fruit buds, significantly enhances sugar formation in berries, and also accelerates their ripening. Potassium fertilizers play a huge role in the development of immunity and rapid growth of the bush. No less important is calcium, it enhances the production of carbohydrates by the plant, thereby significantly increasing the future yield. But from the use of nitrogen fertilizers it will be better to refrain, in particular, if the plant grows on chernozem, in which natural nitrogen is abundant. Where it is worse, if there is excessive nitrogen content in the soil, then this fact negatively affects the yield due to the rapid growth of shoots with foliage.
