I have also read that milk can be used but have not tried it. I think I also read hydrogen peroxide can be used on mildew.
I did try that but it was not effective; perhaps I had it diluted too much/too cautious?
however I believe the oil base is more effective than a water base just bc it...
First discovery I made is a very recent one but whether you have a fungal issue close to harvest and cannot use a systemic, practice organic gardening which limits your options or have elected to not use sulfur in an effort to stop/reverse imbalances in ground nutrients etc.
there are some...
Namely 2 species variants.
fragaria Virginiana var. platypatela or broad leaf strawberry which I believe is a ca native
fragaria Virginiana var. glauca or blue leaf strawberry or mountain strawberry which inhabits a larger, northwesterly bordering Canada.
I found a few vendors via search but...
James,
I am by no means a professional grape leaf identifier but I will share my opinion regardless.
To me it looks half vinifera and the other part looks to be some type of vitis aestivalis.
given the time line in which the vine was purchased I think it’s possible you might have a real treat...
Best resource I know of is below. Florida is a challenge!
I suggest you do extensive research into the various works of private grape breeders for Florida and the gulf coast.
floridagrapes.com may be a good starting point.
back when Florida had a budget for actual grape work: HS17A/MG105...
A general google search was not helpful but perhaps some Texas natives may know of a nursery?
I am looking for a male and a female but would also like to source a custom graft for them.
I live in central va and do not believe my soil can sustain them but it does sustain American persimmon...
Just a random unrelated tidbit. If you happen to see or have seen any pitcher plants or other carnivores growing in that swampy mess then hmu especially if you plan on draining it.
wow, nice find and good work on making the save.
they are dormant so you have a chance. Muscadine are kinda finicky about being disturbed so don’t be disappointed if you lose any and given the uneven ratios of root to trunk the plant may abort the trunk entirely and send up new shoots.
which...
One technology that while still in its infancy is being developed for vineyards is electrostatic disinfection which imo is much more viable but one would still have to wait on it to get cheaper tho.
Hmm it’s been a while since I have seen it but I do not think it is grape louse. Not 100% but I remember the “bumps” were uniformly sized and kinda fuzzy up top.
then again these were on natives and may look different on varieties.
