Just one more reason to start cuttings in the garden in late May; all you need to get them rooted is some drip<BR>
irrigation whenever the soil surface dries out >>>> until the end of August when they should begin to harden off with NO MORE supplimentary water.<BR>

Central New Brunswick, 40 kms North of Fredicton. Zone 4a, but growing season here is so flip flop (Z3 to Z10). It can cold like alaska in AM and hot/dry like desert or hot and humid like rain forest during summer season. I basically have a headstart to the Earth's future weather conditions. Thats why I grow/breed so many different food plants, if they can survive here,they will survive almost anywhere. Just had 3 days of very high winds and frost this morning,damage unknown yet but it is discouraging. Tempory greenhouse destroyed by winds,so it leaves all cuttings/leafed-out plants exposed to frost. Alas,a bit depressed this morning.<BR><BR>

Dornfelder just acquired last fall from Peter. Grew one cutting in basement and much slower grower than Baco Noir,but a good size never the less. A rich sandy soil with a big pinch of bonemeal makes a difference. I head start my star vines early to get a good crop of green cuttings in july/aug or dormant cuttings in late fall. They sometimes the mother vine survives, but most don't overwinter well (unless its returned to growroom before hard cold hits and 8-12weeks of dormancy is completed). My wife thinks me crazy in a cute way, what more can I say? Growing is a lifetime of experiments. <BR><BR>> Date: Wed, 28 May 2008 16:21:56 -0500<BR>> From: rwdbest@sympatico.ca<BR>> To: growwine@littlefatwino.com<BR>> Subject: Re: [Growwine] My Grape List<BR>> <BR>> robert valiquette wrote:<BR>> > *Here's my list Richard. **_Not in any order_*<BR>> > ...<BR>> That is very impressive.
