Home Vineyard-Year 3

[ChuckD]

Despite most of my 2-yr old vines being stripped by deer, and 14” of rain in the last two months, the vineyard is looking pretty good.

This is year three for the Marquette and Petite Pearl. Most of the former are supporting a limited crop while the latter are still too small. In fact, deer ate all the shoots off the year two Itasca and Frontenac in early May. They have recovered and many are bigger than the Pearls.


These are some of the Marquette.

Really pretty and lots of fruit showing in that second picture. Keep us posted as things progress!

Looks good, no disease?

There are a few leaves here and there on two of the Marquette that have something… I’m thinking black rot?

I’m so busy with the addition that I haven’t had time to dig into it. I did spray 3 times now with mancozeb and it doesn’t seem to be spreading.
