[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1248497, member: 18945"] 3rd year with this grape vine--1st year it just grew. Last year, about a dozen bunches formed but most of the tiny grapes disappeared when they were about 1/2 the size of a BB--I blamed it on birds--got just a handful of mature grapes from it. This year (it's been wet) I covered the whole thing with mesh and there are hundreds of bunches on it, but again, most of them are disappearing while they are about the size of a pin head, leaving just bunches of stems. Is there something that causes the fruit not to 'set' and stay put? We did have a heavy rain last week and a lot of wind but I can't imagine big vineyards would have to cover their whole place to keep the little grapes from just blowing off the first time a breeze comes along. (I don't remember the variety, but supposed to be a table grape--an eating grape, not a wine grape. [/QUOTE]
