1789est Wallace ’11 (F: 1725 Harp x M: 1810.5 Stevens)
This plant was started a little later and has been slow to develop but it seems to be getting going now. The secondaries are present and starting to vine out.
While it seems the standard for comparison this time of year is main vine length, I have had plants in the past that grow a great main vine but do not ‘fill-in’, so I developed the idea of Leaf Area Estimation which is basically the area of a triangle. (This works best for the standard Christmas Tree style of pruning.) All you have to do is measure the width of the plant and the length of the main vine. Then it is simply (1/2)*(width of the plant)*(main vine length) = Leaf Area Estimation.
Leaf Area Estimation= 48 square feet
Main Vine Length= 12 feet
