How is it?
Jan 26th 2016. Nets are being placed over the vines.
Brix reading 8 degrees. Have sprayed on Ecocarb. This effects the Ph level, by doing this the black spot stops spreading.


 We store the nets while not in use in Big black plastic bags, in the loft.

 This shot shows off the mesh size

 Looking back up to the house with the nets draped over the vines
 Along the two bottom rows. The first three are Merlot.
I tie the inside rows together with twisty ties. This stops the nets from being blown off in strong winds. It takes a few hours to do all the rows!
 Two more rows to go today. It is very hot today.

 A few bunches of Chambourcin, looking good.
