Veraison 2nd week January.
Even growth is very important
Bush vines - note the even growth.
After removing the leaves note the open canopy allowing light onto each leaf.
After pruning in winter during August
A trellised vine.
A pea size bunch - second week November.
A ladybird helping to keep disease away. Thank you
20 cm shoot length
Good open spacing between the shoots.
Healthy leaves all absorbing the sun.
Starting their growth towards the midday sun.
The day we all wait for - Budburst - the first week of September.
Trelllised vines.
Thinning leaves to allow more sun and light into the leaf zone.
The tendril of the shoot naturally clasps the trellis wire.
The first shoots begin to sprout.
The dog!
Heavy growth before we thin the leaves.
Working the vines.
