New seedless grapes showed very early ripening periods, surpassing even the “parental” varieties Rusbol and Sofia. From the moment of budding until harvesting, only 95-100 days pass, while Sofia has this period of 110-125 days, and Rusbol matures in 115-125 days.

According to the description and photo of Velez grapes, ripe grapes weigh from 600 to 2000 grams, although the winegrowers who have already managed to grow bushes on their plots and get the first crops show brushesabout 3 kg. The hybrid, attributable to the third class of seedlessness, has a high consumer appeal and taste.

Brushes with ripe berries are well stored and transported. Shoots tolerate the weight of clusters. In dry weather, brushes up to one and a half months can remain on the vine, fully preserving all taste and juiciness. According to the reviews of wine-growers, even a slight degree of heaving does not affect the bunch of grapes, but only enhances the nutmeg notes.

In the southern regions of this growth receive an additional second crop, ripening in late September or in October. In the middle lane, where less time is left for ripening of shoots, stepchildren are best removed.

The winter hardiness of the variety that withstands temperatures down to –21 ° C is insufficient to grow grapes in the open ground in the middle lane. In the southern regions, Velez winters well, and even if individual shoots are damaged by the cold, the bushes quickly recover during the season.

It is possible to improve the maturation of shoots and improve the quality of the crop with the help of spring pruning and normalization.

At the same time, 6–8 eyes are left on the vine for escaping, and under favorable climatic conditions on strong bushes the load is increased. As can be seen in the photo and from the description, Veles grapes are characterized by high yield. Shrubs annually form inflorescences and give a large number of ovaries. The first main harvest is removed in August, and when using stepchildren, the second wave of berries ripen in mid-autumn.

This characteristic feature of the culture suggests that the hybrid is suitable for cultivation in a variety of climatic zones, from central Russia to the Kuban and the Crimea. With the observance of the technology of growing grapes, Veles will regularly supply the grower with large, excellent quality berries.
