Sevin worked incredibly well. Several days ago I sprayed all of my vines except for the Nebbiolo, which is perhaps two weeks away from harvest. (Everything...
I train Léon to long-canes at about 5.5feet. Comes to the same thing. Best possible way too deal with it. Never had much luck with cordons. g [Non-text...
Mine are all trained on high wire since 1986. Have tried VSP, Keuka high renewal, etc. Always go back to high wire training. Where I learned previous to that...
The only reason they might suggest training Chancellor to a lower system would be because it is a bit more upright in growth than Foch or Chambourcin. I never...
I am also tending more and more toward bilateral high cordons. I don't contend that it is the "best" system, but for my cool climate varieties, it provides the...

Thanks for the input - you pretty much sold me on retrellising over the winter on the Chancellor (I was already going to do the Foch Baco ). can you think of...
... I converted my small Leon Millot, a cousin to Foch, to top wire this year because of their very vigorous growth, the canes will drop to the ground and...

Has anyone looked at both the Hardi LB 50 and Jacto Arbus200 sprayers and can tell me what they feel the main difference is? I don't know if it matters but...
I am very disappointed in the pre-emergent weed control we used this year. It has not touched bind weed or alfalfa, two of the real problems in my vineyard....
Preemergents work on germinating seeds to prevent growth. I believe alfalfa and bindweed, although both produce seeds, are perennial (at least alafalfa is) and...
Well what I thought was bind weed is actually a similar looking viney weed called "Honey vine milkweed". Pre emergents don't work on either. Alfalfa is also a...
