Black Spanish Grapes are in full bloom

The Black Spanish grapes are blooming this week!  I know I was supposed to pinch off all the grapes this year, but I decided to let each vine set one or two cluster so I could get a good idea when the grape’s bloom, veraison (change color), and harvest time.  Plus I’m curious about size, taste, color and sugar content of the grapes.

I also fertilized and sprayed again this weekend.  From now up to another 4 weeks are when they are most susceptible to black rot and other fungus issues.
