Abstract This study was carried out during 2014 and 2015 seasons on thirty uniform vines, 7 years- old of Superior cv. grapevines. The selected vines are grown in a private vineyard located at El- Hawarta Village, Minia district, Minia Governorate. The selected vines are planted at 2 x 3 meters apart. The chosen vines were trained using cane pruning system (Gable supporting method), leaving 72 eyes/ vine (six fruiting canes x 10 eyes plus six renewal spurs / two eyes). Winter pruning was carried out at the first week of Jan. during both seasons. Surface irrigation system was followed using Nile water. Conclusion: Under the experimental and resembling conduction, it is recommended to use a mixture of extracts of turmeric and roselle each at 1% three times (growth start, just after berry setting, and 21 days after berry setting) for improving yield quantatively and qualitatively of Superior grape vines grown under Minia conditions. |
