OTHER INFORMATION

Behavior in the nursery: it has a slow vegetative growth and rooting capacity, though it tends to develop a consistent quantity of fasciculate crown-shaped roots. In the nursery it guarantees a medium-high yield.
Behavior in the propagation block: it delays lignification, it is suitable to being grown sprawling on the ground, but it guarantees medium-high yields whether grown sprawling or on trellises.
Behavior in the open field: the root system tends to develop within the first 40cm of soil; it well adapts to chlorosis inducing soils with a low salinity; it prefers deep and fresh soils. Limited production capacity and induced vigor; it favors the accumulation of sugars, anthocyanins and polyphenols.
