Spraying May 21, 2013

Captan, Mancozeb, Nova

Shoots are very varied on the plants.  Some buds are just now breaking out on branches I had thought were dead while others have shoots now 4-6 inches.  Have definitely lost two Cayuga whites, with the third showing growth only at the base.  I'll let it grow and trim off the dead but will not replant this variety since it really seemed to grow very slowly and a harsh winter did them in.  Compared to the Frontenac gris, which are 2 years old and very vigorous.  If the grapes, of which I'll let a few develop this year, show promise I may replant with two more of those.
