We lost one plant over at the big patch. the 1208 Kibler went down to Yellow Vine Disease. I can't believe how quickly this plant went from healthy to dying. A week ago today it was one of the strongest plants in the patch. All other plants look pretty good. The 705 Debacco, the 1738 Barron, 777 Young and the surprise of the patch is the 559 Fraley. 10 of the 11 plants will be ready to pollinate in the next week with female blossoms at the 12-15 foot mark. The powdery mildew is here; we are doing battle already despite weekly applications of at least one fungicide.
