Tom,

an interesting comment on the grape size.  This is only my second year of product--so I didn't have much to compare against; but I thought that these looked mighty puny!  My first harvest last year was pretty decent.  These are exactly as you describe--tiny!  I was scratching my head, thinking "plenty of moisture--they say don't fertilize--what did I do wrong..."  never thinking about the degree days!  I think this was valuable insight for me.

Thanks!
