Fantastic! You did a great job.. This page could sure help a lot of people. The information is so reliable. Thanks! For more about grapes and grape growing, visit this link too: http://goinggrapes.com/
I'm up near Virginia City and have killed so many grapes, I'm definitely putting this on my calendar to attend. I've had one success, and that was when I forgot about the plant and it adapted on it's own. Whoever said growing rose's was hard had never tried growing grapes!
Wow its an amazing blog..
Thanks for sharing information with us..
