1530.5 Breznick. Stump area all cleaned out and placed under plexiglass. Drip lines tested today. Plant is favoring the south side slightly which is the right side as you look at the image. Had to remove about 6 of the oldest leaves a few days ago. Too much N I think when the weather turned warm. Or maybe sun scald. Or maybe a little fungus after staying in the hoop a little too long. Whatever, it seems to have calmed down. Plant has received one dose of Merit, One dose of Spinosad, Two doses of Talstar, Two doses of Daconil and one dose of Heritage over the last three weeks. I saw what appeared to be the first SVB today flying in and out of the leaves of this plant. We're ready as the last dose of Talstar was last night. I have 2 SVB traps up and set and they are both empty. Females this morning on the main vine at roughly 8, 10 and 12 feet. Sounds like I'm making this up but this plant must have read the manual. I removed the one at 8 feet this morning after seeing the one at 12 feet.
