Abstract
Investigation was carried out for twenty peach varieties with different time of harvest in dry farming system. All trees were in classic palmette training. Based on the investigation it was determined that all varieties have achieved good vegetative growth in 5th vegetation. According to vigor varieties can be divided in three categories: very vigorous with three diameter above 12 cm, vigorous with diameter of 10 - 12 cm and medium vigorous with diameter less than 10 cm. Very vigorous are: Springold, Merrill Gem Free, Springcrest, Armgold, Fairtime, Fayette and Red Top. Vigorous are Filette, Redcap, Early Red, Early Redhaven, Sentinel, Regina, Redhaven and Suncrest. Medium vigorous are Collins, Southland, Glohaven Cresthaven and Redskin. Somewhat greater yield has been achieved by varieties Sentinel, Early Redhaven, Redhaven, Regina, Early Red, Filette and Cresthaven medium yield by varieties Red Top, Glohaven, Redcap, Merrill Gem Free, Collins, Fayette, Redskin, Suncrest, Fairtime and Southland and lowest yield by varieties Springold, Springcrest and Armgold.
