MR. T. (team T)

Nova Scotia

this year i plan to plant on march 20th and another july1st. so as you can see i'm likely the closest equater grower going. so temps will be about 110 degree weather. so how besides misting do i keep my new leaves from burning up? i was thinking of a cheese cloth tent for the head of each vine. but how big should i make it or at what point is a leaf mature enough not to need protection?

Mr. T...ive used shade cloth with good results. i used 30%. not sure if you need to go higher or not. i left it on the whole season.
