Practical Viticulture...and another small 'illogical' take on vineyard cover crops



March 17, 2020 in the vineyard at Los Lunas ASC

A wire tie that has been left on too long and appears to
have girdled this cane
The same cane from the photo above... with the tie removed...

Does it make sense?  Take a look down the row...notice that the weeds that appear be thriving in the vine row to the right are not so prevalent when encountering some competition from the winter wheat planted in row middles. This photo was taken today, March 17, 2020, in the vineyard at the Los Lunas ASC experimental vineyard. No irrigation has been applied since late October 2019.
