Well ALL of my Cabernet Franc are growing wonderfully now. Growth is very strong and much more vigorous than last year. This is a good thing for this year as these plants were slow growers last year because I let the grass grow under the trellis and it shut down the vines significantly.

Even with the lost of first few shoots due to frost, the plants are doing nicely. However, the temps are expexted to drop into the mid 30’s or lower either tonight or the next night, so I’m not sure what I am going to do, because it would not be good to have frost hit these vines again. I will probably buy some large, veyr large industrial fams from Lowe’s to help move the air around. I will be watching the weather station closely tonight!
