Gala Schniga® Schnico Red, Gala Schnico Red
Italy
MM106
Mid to late August
This variety is a bud mutation of Gala Schniga Schnitzer, which itself is a mutation of Gala. Due to the uniformity of the fruits, intense coloration, and long shelf life, this variety is highly valued in EU markets. It is also ideal for export, as the fruits tolerate transportation well and maintain their appearance even after extended storage.
Extremely sweet, aromatic, and juicy, with a pleasant crispness and a subtle tang that provides a perfect balance of freshness and sweetness.
The fruit is conical or slightly flattened-conical. Medium-sized, slightly larger than some Gala Schniga/Schnitzer versions. The color is deep red, covering the entire fruit surface (or almost entirely). The flesh is yellowish-light, firm, juicy, sweet, and very pleasant in flavor; excellent market quality.

You can purchase seedlings of Apple Gala SchniCo Red at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.

Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
