This experiment was done in 2021 and 2022 seasons. In order to estimate the results of applying three organic acids (salicylic, ascorbic, and citric) singly and in combination at varying concentrations (250, 500, and 1000 ppm) on the growth, berry quality, and yield of Early Sweet grapevines In comparison to the control, it was discovered that both single and combination administrations of all evaluated organic acids had a beneficial impact on characteristics of growth, vine's nutritional condition, berry quality and yield. It was also observed that the combined applications were superior to those of the single application in all tested traits, and the improvement was compatible with an increased concentration of250 to 1000 ppm. The conclusion is that to raise both yield and berry quality under sandy soil, it might be worth spraying Early Sweet grapes at three different times (beginning of growth, following the berry setting, and after three weeks) with combination of organic acids (citric, ascorbic, and salicylic) with concentrations of 500 ppm from each of them.
