It's Kim's birthday today, and so far it hasn't rained. It actually rained a lot this May and June, and I learned that can really screw up the self-fertilization of the grapes, so I could end up with lower yields.
I also am (obvious to me) still learning about the pruning method I'm using (spur-cane) and so I didn't do as good a job of planning for the future (this year's shoots) as I thought. On the plus side, the vines are really doing well and even the wimpy Pinot Meunier near the front of the rows is finally starting to show some good vine growth. I'll get some decent yield from some of the Pinot Meunier this year.
