So I was out pruning a vineyard today and noticed some vines with very large nodes and they seemed to branch more than normal(at least to me). It was very spotty throughout the rows. This was a mix between vines planted this past year and some the year before. They were all in grow tubes.
These vines are Melody but I also had the same problem in my personal vineyard with my vines. I have about 10 varieties but it seemed to happen to the vinifera more than the natives. Mine was also spotty, one cab would look like a small bush while the one next to it focused on a couple leaders and grew long.
I can elaborate more if it helps and get more pictures later in the week. I just wanted to see if anyone knew what this was. I'm guessing excessive nutrients because mine is in a old sheep pen but the vineyard I got the pictures from was an old pasture and by the looks of it and lack of growth on the vines I would guess its lacking.
