    Question about the biology of the Grape cycle

    ok...so you have 12 rooms to devote to grapes? even six? wow i would think that each room will need its own light controls but more importantly you will have to instigate dormancy to mimic seasons....and you are saying you want to have grapes all year have at it...sounds interesting i...

    Question about the biology of the Grape cycle

    i was going to answer earlier but held back/....at this point in the conversation you need to see if your outside dirt/soil is toxic or you just do not KNOW how to grow something....and if the latter is true then you better learn prior to growing indoors or you will repeat your mistakes.....

    Not going below 1.000

    stabilizing is a very important step because it freezes in time all the possibilities that your wine has to offer...never rush the time from when you stabilize to bottling time...make sure you let the ingredients have to find their way to every oz of your wine
