Vine Shelters and Spraying

[JackH]

Hi all,
Getting ready to plant a backyard vineyard (20 vines, Vidal Blanc) in SE Pennsylvania. Per recommendations, I wlll install Blue-X Vine shelters on each new vine. My question is: when it's time to implement the first year spray schedule, how should the spraying be done with respect to the vine shelters? Do they stay in situ and spray directed into each tube, or should the shelters be removed each time for spraying and then reinstalled? I could not find any guidance online for this, so any help greatly appreciated.
