Comments on: Our grape growing season in retrospect - Week 1 http://www.my-grape-vine.com/blog/managing-weeds-in-a-vineyard/ Free Grape Growing Information For All Grape Growers Thu, 29 Jul 2010 21:06:18 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Shari http://www.my-grape-vine.com/blog/managing-weeds-in-a-vineyard/#comment-5168 Shari Fri, 05 Jun 2009 04:15:31 +0000 http://www.my-grape-vine.com/blog/?p=333#comment-5168 Hi Grape Guy - We harvested our pinot noir grapes late oct '08 and put in sealed containers (like trash cans but for the grapes) stored in our outbuilding. Life happens, and we never got around to crushing, so there all those grapes still sit. Weather's turned pretty warm lately (close to 90) so we're wondering if there's anything we can still do with them, or if they become fertilizer at this point. Greatly appreciate your input.

We had some mildew problems as well this year and I will discuss this as part of the "Our grape growing season in retrospect" posts. Will talk about this soon Danie Jeanette, your climate is probably humid and hot (true?).

I will try to shed some light on this topic in the near future Sal, this is a tricky question to answer in just one post, as it depends on how you are growing your grapes.

We have only 10 rows of grapes which have been in situ for 5 years. In the North Island of NZ we are troubled with mildews which seem to be worst just after bud burst. We spray with Kocide every 2 weeks and the vines have plenty of free flowing air but there still seems to be a problem. Any ideas please. Regards, Jeanette Hi Danie
