    You repeat the same mistakes of other vineyards. First mistake: The leaves provide the sugar and food for the grapes and roots. By cutting the leaves off you put the vine on a diet. Second mistake: You let the leaves tower above the ripening grapes, putting the grapes into the shades and the uncut branches and leaves in full sunshine. Why? Because you don't think independently and just do what everyone does. Third mistake: Your grapes grow on the level of your belly, making you bend over to cut the ripe grapes. You will have a bad back when you have done this work 30 years. Allow the grapes on the level of your chest or higher, using a ladder. Allow the new leaders and new growth to grow UNDER the grapes, using the empty space under the grapes. Fourth mistake: You grow only monocrops. The area under the grapes has space to plant red, white or black currants. These you can pick in June - July. The earliest grapes you pick at the end of august - october. After picking the currants, you bend the new grapeleaders down along the berrybushes. Mistake Five: By having the blooms of grapes unprotected, they are vulnerable for late frost. The new growth of currant bushes will protect the grapeblooms from frost, also because the blooms are higher up now. Mistake Six: By using machines to work the vineyard, you compact the earth and make bad cuts, making the grapevines contract weak and open for pests and fungus. Mistake Seven: By using famous varietals and not PIWI varietals, you have to spend a lot of hours tending the vineyard. I hope to have woken you up for a better way of growing grapes. I am a coach by profession and a gardener. I use different methods in my mixed fruit garden with 85 grape varietals. coachfmvos@gmail.com

    Here in SoCal, we have Mockingbirds, and they don't care about my Falcon Kite or much else. They will even try to attack the RedTailed and Coopers Hawks around here. We bought fruit-zone netting last year, and they even got INSIDE it. I'll be trying again with fruit zone netting this year, fastened with tag barbs at close intervals, plus some spacers on the T-posts to hold the nets away from the fruit. Here's something about Mockingbirds: www.pbssocal.org/redefine/an-intro-to-mockingbirds-the-noisiest-most-aggressive-small-bird-youll-ever-meet

    @marccunningham2 Před 2 lety

    Great video! Q1: After disgorging, when adding sugar to the dosage - will this cause a 3rd fermentation in the bottle, or does disgorging prevent the wine from fermenting again? Q2: After topping off, how does the sparkling wine keep its carbonation and how long will the sparkling wine stay carbonated?
