"White filling". Varieties for the Russian climate

"White filling" - a variety that occurs in a number ofplants. Among them, apple and tomato are the most popular. Apple trees of this kind are known in Russia in that they grow successfully and perfectly bear fruit on the island of Valaam, where about half a thousand pieces were planted inside the monastery walls. To successfully develop them, rich soils are not needed, but loams with sufficient moisture and places protected from strong winds are considered optimal.

The apple tree "white filling" has a beautiful pyramidal(southern variant) or round (northern variant) crown, medium size and high frost resistance. Fruit bearing dates for young specimens are fast, the harvest is collected annually, and it is abundant enough. The advantage of the variety is an early lush bloom, the buds are not afraid of frosts or cold rainy weather.

Apples "white filling" are ready for use usuallyin early August in the middle zone of Russia, and in the north - later, which allows you to classify the category as early ripening. Fruits of medium size are larger and may have different halves or "seam" along the apple. Coloration is greenish-yellowish, does not have a blush, in the phase of ripeness - white and yellow with numerous whitish dots under the skin.

Variety "white filling" is not easy, fruitsare stored for about three weeks. This is facilitated by a very thin peel and the absence of a cover coat, so gentle apples with a taste of wine are best used immediately or made from them juices. It is recommended to strictly observe the harvesting time, because fruits easily fall and acquire a mealy taste. Apples of this variety are poorly transportable, that's why they are grown mainly in suburban areas for personal consumption.

For short and often not hot Russian summerit is necessary to select cultures of early maturation, which include tomatoes "white filling". This proven variety was created a long time ago, in 1967, based on such varieties of tomatoes as "Victor", "lighthouse", "Pushkin". Plants of this species are medium-sized (about 44 cm), giving ripening fruits 100-150 g with good taste qualities. The fruits are rounded, with a small ribbing. The culture is perfectly adapted to lower temperatures, it can be grown under a film and in the open ground. On seedlings, the seeds are planted in early April, in May-June they can be placed in the ground, and the yield can be obtained somewhere in 110-115 days for certain species ("white pour-241" in the southern regions).

Tomatoes "white filling" have dense skin,resistant to cracking, so they are well transported. To their advantages also include sufficient resistance to phytophthosis, which allows in protected soil to obtain up to 8 kg of products per square meter. The culture needs two or three additional fertilizing during the whole vegetation period, in watering with warm water, and also with a garter to the vertical trellises in the phase of the formation of a single stem. Specialists consider tomatoes of this variety among the best for growing on the territory of Russia.
