I have learned a lesson this week.
They say " Live and Learn". But this is not the way I wanted to live and learn.
I killed two plants. Plum stupidity.
I mulched my vines with shredded leaves, straw, aged rabbit manure and Bio-Gro Endo Plus mixed in. I then watered the plants down with a liquid fertilizer. It killed the plants. The roots were melted dead. But, on one plant, one of the first secondary vines was only mulched with shredded leaves, straw and aged rabbit manure with No bio-grow. It is the only surviving vine left on the plant.
It is the 936 Holland plant. I removed all the dying vines and it is down to one vine again that will now be the main.
Sigh !
