Etter gave its parents as the wild Alpine strawberry of Europe and the buck strawberry from Devil's Gate south of Cape Mendocino (Etter, 1916). Ettersburg 121 was vigorous and long-lived. The extensive root system penetrating to nearly 3 feet (1 meter) and resistant to strawberry root weevil. The only weakness was susceptibility to leaf-spot disease. The fruit was medium in size, bright red, and firm which make it a favorite canning berry. Crops were heavy, and the berry capped easily when picked. Several hundred acres of Ettersburg 121 were raised in Oregon for canning during the early twenties. Stephen Whilhelm and James Sagen. 1972.

Fruit; cluster size good; berry large; skin black; flavor good; ripens Sept. 12. Vine: vigorous; very productive; self-fertile; moderately tolerant of disease and insects; adapted throughout southeastern U.S. Muscadine type." Per Andersen (see citation): "Muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia Michx.) are indigenous to the southeastern United States. Currently 4,000 acres are under cultivation, and the muscadine industry in Florida is stable with about 400-500 acres. Olien summarized the strenghths of the muscadine industry to include a greater resistance to insects and diseases, increased vine longevity and increased market diversity compared to Euvitis table grapes. Poor tolerance to wet soils, uneven fruit ripening, wet stem scar, lack of seedlessness, unstable markets and low prices for processed fruit were cited as weaknesses of the muscadine industry. [...] In addition to high yield, berry size and soluable solids, other important characteristics of muscadine grapes are a high percentage of dry scar, rapid speed for harvest and uniform ripening especially for mechanical harvesting. Since berries were harvested by hand shaking the vines, % dry scar...would be lower than if the grapes were mechanically harvested or pulled off by hand. Muscadine grapes generally ripen more unevenly than Euvitis grapes which is a disadvantage when once-over harvesting or mechanically harvesting. Mortensen and Harris determined that 'Carlos,' 'Cowart,' [etc.] were cultivars that had the best combinations of speed of harvest (sec/lb), % marketable fruit, and % dry scar for fresh market grapes. [...] 'Cowart,' [etc. has] been identified as the best cultivars for the fresh fresh market." | 1018765 | DVIT 2189 |
