Add more Bone Meal to the soil? With grapes, the roots don't need it. I would worry about encouraging excessive fruit by adding excessive bone meal. One way of producing higher quality wines is to drop (cut-off) part of the crop (1/4 - 1/2). Normally, growers are looking at around 4 1/2 tons per acre, if it is less than that, then bone meal would probably be helpful. -- Billy Bush & Cheney, Behind Bars |
