Rough Pruning

For the past few weeks I've been 'rough pruning' the vines - I'm taking it slowly doing a row at a time, cutting them in kindling-size chunks and putting the rest in our yard waste bin (reason: if the vines do have some time of infection we don't want it propogated through our compost!)

We're also hand-raking all of the dry leaves that have fallen on the ground.

Here's a before & after shot.

I should be done this week, then I can look into a dormant spray program before the holidays.

That's all for now!
