Shoots Emerging

Despite a late start, the vines have decided to catch up and are growing quickly!  Am now going through row-by-row to remove excess shoots, remove some of the kicker canes I'd kept on, and doing general clean-up of cover crop.  Tomorrow I'll spray the shoots that are long enough (over 8" or so) with a mix of Stylet Oil and Iron/Zinc supplement.  On a few randomly selected vines I'll exclude iron/zinc, since I'd like to do a petiole analysis this year (and the spray will interfere with iron and zinc measurements.)
