Another hicup in the little greenhouse. We have had three days now of intense sunshine. The first day it was very cool in the morning and a bit overcast so I left the door shut and was to open it at noon. I forgot and did not discover my mistake until almost 5PM. It probably got to 130 degrees in there. You can imagine newly rooted cuttings did not like that temperature. I am sure a few of them might not make it, but overall they don't look too bad- just some crispy leaves here and there. I have been watching it like a hawk since then.
I sprayed the 4 acre field this AM with grass killer. I will let that set now for a week to ten days and then plow it and work it up. Man, what a view from there on top of the hill. It slopes off to the south and east and has views of the Green Mountains of Vermont in the distance. It is going to look great from a semi-major state highway sloping up the hill. I could run the rows either direction, but I am planting up and down the hill for visual effect. After I work the field up I will post a picture of it.
When planning a vineyard, take the views to and from it into account. My original vineyard is hidden from view in the pine trees on a back road hence the name Hid-In-Pines Vineyard. Nobody knows it is there and it is hard to get them to come. Put a vineyard where it shows up and you will get more interest and visitors. I know a couple vineyards put in after mine that stand out on a major road and everybody asks me if I know those people. If they can see it, they will ask about it.
