I think I just talked to the guy that sold you the posts. He said he may have a few more. Funny.

Shockwave,where did you get your trellis supplies? Anyone good nearby?

Great thread! I'm about to set posts as well, and am wondering if 2' is deep enough for the holes? I'm planning on a slight angle and angles for the end posts, and like many other here have 60' rows. Cheers!

Nice work! Curious about your trellis approach. Are you planning different trellises for different vines?

Here's the latest pic.

Hey everyone, year 2 here in Mystic. I'm planning the trellis and had a few questions about Rich's modified GDC. A couple years ago you had linked to some info, but that link seems to be dead, unfortunately. Do you have a summary of the system posted somewhere? How tall are your end posts...

45 vines in the ground today. Good start for a home vineyard, and then we got 2 inches of rain. I'm excited about the Marquette

That's very encouraging! Thanks.

I've unfortunately got a small site that will only allow E-W rows, or I'd have to have a bunch of short NS rows. Any advice to maximize sun exposure?

Grapeman, how tall is your modified GDC? The trend I'm seeing is 72" for the top wire of other trellis systems. Is this about right?

Nice crop, Rich! I'm plowing and liming this weekend (current pH 5.1). I'm gonna go ahead and put in a few test vines this year, rather than wait.

Considered it. Neighbors complain about the holes in their garage.

Bob, I'm not far from there at all - 1/2 mile from the bridge. Let me know if you're down this way again. Ordered my vines from NE vine supply today. Lots of work ahead. Anyone have advice about keeping deer away?

Very glad to find this thread! I'm in the early stages of planning a small vineyard in coastal CT, and Marquette is looking like a good choice. I'm sure to have questions once I've reviewed all the posts.
