Re: Borers, Hail, & Wind

Vines should recover, give them a few days.   Burying vines helps prevent them from getting blown around and promotes additional tap roots. Completely cover them with soil so all you see is the leaf stalks sticking out of the ground.

 Help, first year grower in need assistance.  We had a nasty thunderstorm that moved some vines around.  I moved the vines back in place, but they are laying on their sides, will they stand back up????    I found one vine borer that I missed as an egg or moth, and the thing is in my vine.  It was not there yesterday.  I sprayed a VERY small amount of VERY dilute solution of Sevin into the hole, hopefully this will take care of the problem.  Any advice? Jason in Indiana
