This weekend we'll have about 3F night temperature. I know this is not much in terms of winter cold weather. But I just wonder what kind of winter dieback we expect to see.
I grow Marquette and several kinds of table grapes, such as Concord, Himrod, etc. Most are first year vines and they are about 4' to 5' tall. Most of them will be cut down and retrained this year.
If the winter dieback is material, I may prune off some of the top growth and try to root them. I have room for more vines. I just do not want to wait for too long and a lot of the top growth will be gone by spring prune time.
