Variety traits

Maturity group — Vaccinium

Vaccinium L.

Classification of Vaccinium varieties based on the relative timing of berry harvest maturity, determined through long-term phenological observations.

In the reference 24 varieties crop Bilberry, where this is mentioned in the description.

The maturity group in Vaccinium cultivation is a system for categorizing varieties into early, mid-season, mid-late, and late categories. This trait does not have universal numerical values in days or active temperature sums, as it is a relative characteristic dependent on the cultivation region, soil and climatic conditions of the season, and the genetic traits of a specific variety.

Knowledge of the maturity group is essential for establishing a production schedule that allows for extending the harvest period and optimizing labor costs. When selecting varieties for a specific plantation, it is important to consider the correlation between ripening times and the region's growing season to avoid losses from early autumn frosts, and to align agrotechnical practices with the corresponding phenological growth stages of the plants.
