Summer. Retrospective 1

Summer retrospective.
that protected bush... juneberries.

 And I had to do same for others... yeah

Garlic.. harvested, ready to re-plant and sun drying. Good quality crop.
These are the scapes from it harvested earlier and now frozen for the later.

Early summer currants are ok, all black Russian, Black consort, crandel and whites and reds

mid and summer end - crop was harvested, in August only one we have is crandel ripening slow (I would not do whole lot of it either in 106F heat and dead no rain weather for a month...). that's to protect from red robins and black starlings (aka local flying rats and they and sparrows brought me big mites problem)

 

Problem never seen hit red lake currant and was specific to several bushes.

 

Before - after

 

 

It is not 100+F heat, it looks fungal, but it is not fire bight.

 It did not touch red or white. Burned the dead leaves... It's too selective, it is on one type of plant.

Does not mean I had no red's, just lost a lot.

 
grapes in early summer are like so. why? Cause we can have snow for 2 days on may 26 that's why.

crop is set... bastard rooster got in and ate with his hens over 30 pounds of grapes or more. rooster disciplined, reinforcements are in place :)... what can I do, he's rather caring for his flock bastard (well he's pure bred orloff...).

and same grape in August... 

Green table grape.

 

it has being hit by hail storms and some of the crop is damaged,have to pick damaged grapes and chickens will be happy to have it. 

Baby green grape sets the very first fruit. And st Teresa grape recommended for midwest lived...
