I have a can of glass marbles that I sterilize and add to take up lost volume. It eliminates the whole diluting the wine or changing the ph problem. I am sure someone will have a problem with this, someone always does. It has worked for me.

I am not familiar with bald face hornets. We have red wasps, and yellow paper wasp by the millions. It is a constant fight with those things. Sorry but it is good to hear someone else has a problem. Good luck with them.

Last season I lost the better part of my crops to birds. I tried hawk and owl decoys and reflective scare ribbons. I need a more effective solution. It is amazing how fast cardinals, painted buntings and blue birds can wipe out a crop. Maybe I should lease the place out to bird watchers

We had a very late frost. I recieved quite a bit of damage. Some of my vines produced succers. I was afraid to prune them at that time. Most of my second year vines have now made extensive growth elsewhere. Would you reccomed that I prune the succers back now in late June?

Thank you all

I would like to propagate some new Norton (Cynthiana) vines from cuttings but I have read that this doesn't work. Has anyone had experience with this, is it true? If so, do you know an alternative method?

Lenoir grapes Would you ship some to me in North Texas?

Where I am. Young County TX is the site of the Vineyard. Near Markley TX.

Hello everyone, I am trying to rebuild a vineyard my father started. It fell into neglect after his death. I find that I now have time to work on the place. He and I planted most of the vines by hand when I was a young man 30 yrs ago. Dad was then in his 50's(as I am now) I will have questions.

I'd be interested if they are available.
