Top yields manage to be reaped only in 4-5 years from the moment of landing. From mature tree of 12-15-year age it is possible to collect up to 170 kg of apples. At the same time the high productivity quite often becomes the reason of decrease in mass of apples.
The beautiful flavovirent color with gentle-pink flush on barrels which were affected by the sun has apples of this grade. At long storage, apples change color for yellow. The mass of fruits averages about 110-130 g. The grade is late-ripening therefore pulp becomes only sweet fall.

Most often trees of this grade are surprised scab and mealy dew. Besides, these fruit-trees can be attacked by apple fruit stem, tsvetoyed and moth.

For grade apple-trees "Northern Sinap" loamy and sandy soils best of all are suitable. The best time for landing of young apple-trees - April, the end of September and the beginning of October. For disembarkation holes up to 80 cm in depth and about 1 m in width become. On bottom not less than 10 cm of beaten brick or crushed stone keep within. The dug-out fertile layer of the earth mixes up with compost, ashes, the rerotting manure and mineral fertilizers. It is necessary to fill up with this mix the available hole on 1/3.
At once it is necessary to hammer long strong pole which will act as support for young tree. Approximately in 2 - 3 weeks in hole the deepening in which it will be possible to plant young tree becomes again. Roots of saplings should be examined attentively. In need of them moisten with water and cut the damaged or too long backs.
The prepared sapling is placed in hole, straighten roots, and then trenched in the earth. Surely earth surface around young tree is mulched by mix of humus, peat and the crushed straw. After that abundant watering is carried out. Further fertilizing should be carried out every spring. Before blossoming the dissolved urea is brought.

Such option of krone of apple-tree takes quite long time for the creation. To begin to form krone it is necessary since 2nd year after disembarkation to the site. To make vertical palmette, it is necessary to equip several tiers of skeletal branches.
On each tier there have to be about 2 skeletal branches located in one plane, but on the opposite sides of the main column. The young branches which have appeared on the 2nd year on skeletal branches need to be recorded in slanting position. The escapes which are formed on additional branches completely are cut off. If to form apple-tree in such a way, the first fruits appear for the 2nd year, but at the same time active fructification begins for 3-4 year. Fruits, as a rule, are formed on semi-skeletal branches which grow from the main column and branches forming various tiers. It facilitates harvesting.
