candy apple

Wensu means "plenty of water" in Uyghur language, and is known as "the south of the Great Wall". The rainfall here is scarce and the climate is dry, but it is densely covered with water systems and rich in water flow, nourishing a fat oasis; There are abundant light and heat resources, with an average annual total solar radiation of 130-141 kcal/cm ㎡, sunshine of 2,855-2,967 hours, frost-free period of 205-219 days, average annual temperature of 7℃-8℃, cold winter, rare occurrence of pests and diseases during fruit growing period, high altitude, large temperature difference between day and night, sufficient sunshine and the use of pollution-free glacier snow-melting river-Kekeya River for irrigation. The unique "rock candy heart" apple in the world has been formed, and the last process to control the quality of rock candy heart is the frost period in early October in Aksu area, so the production of "rock candy heart" apple in Aksu is extremely regional, and the annual output of pure taste fruit is only 5000 tons. Fruit characteristics: Smooth skin and pollution-free Aksu belongs to warm temperate arid climate. The average annual temperature is 7℃-8℃, and the rainfall is small, but the water flow is abundant. Because of the cold winter and low temperature in Aksu area, there are few pests and diseases during the fruit growth period, and coupled with the drought and lack of rain, molds are not easy to form, which reduces the erosion opportunities of pests, molds and pesticides on the fruit surface. Therefore, the fruit surface of Aksu Red Fuji apple is smooth and delicate, and the color is bright and natural. The unique "sugar heart" makes apples with high sugar content, and the sugar content is about 18 degrees, which is especially sweet because of the large temperature difference between day and night, sufficient sunlight and fertile soil in Aksu high altitude area. Aksu apples are irrigated by glacier snow water and cultivated in sandy soil, which makes the sugar in the core of the apple accumulate into a transparent shape, forming a unique "sugar heart" red Fuji apple in the world. Besides the unique geographical environment, Aksu apples are full of water and crisp in taste, there is another important reason: the picking time of Aksu apples is strictly controlled after October 25th every year, while the picking time of inland apples is from August to September due to the high temperature, so the growing period of Aksu apples is fully extended and they are picked at low temperature, so the water content is particularly sufficient.
