Jennifer welcomes Terry back to talk about #6 of his Top 10 Nutrient Slides - Potted Grapevine Studies: Soil, pH, Phylloxera, Mycorrhizae. They also address that we are approaching veraison - keep an eye out for early ripening vines and think about thinning if it is needed.

 The growing season is flying by. We are three weeks out from Concord veraison and looking at the harvest doorstep three more weeks after that. It is a good time to finish up crop estimations, if you did not do them at 30 days post-bloom, and take some assessments of vine balance to decide when and where you will start harvesting. In this video, Dr. Terry Bates demonstrates how to use canopy NDVI at pre-bloom and pre-veraison with some directed field observations to generate spatial yield, vine size, and crop load maps in Concord vineyards.

 Dr. Terry Bates and Jennifer discuss the multiple decade multiple factorial study that helped form our knowledge on vineyard nutrition and basis of our recommendations.  The original West Tier publication back in 1969:
Shaulis N, Steele RD. 1969. The interaction of resistant rootstock to the nitrogen, weed control, pruning, and thinning on the productivity of Concord grapevines. J Am Soc Hortic Sci 91:122–129.
