RE: pruning
Hi,
I'm a new grower, what do you put on the pruned vines and where do you
cut the leaves?
Thx,
Brian

Hi Glenn,
Yes it's kind of that way. It depends on the plant. If there is a curve
in
the main vine, the inner side will definetly have every other side vine
removed. The outer side will keep all side vines. If it's growing
straight
you use your judgement and only remove those that are gowing to close to
each other. We like to be able to walk down each row easily. This also
allows for sufficient air flow. Hope all is going well and look forward
to
seeing you at the summer picnic... Jim B
