January is pruning month




We've been blessed or possible cursed with a few days of warm springlike weather. So today we got out into the orchard to get some vines and fruit trees pruned. I finally got the eating grapevines sheared back to a semblance of control. Lots of excess watersprouts and vines trimmed out. The plants will bounce back once they start growing this spring and should see great growth this year. These are young plants so just starting fruit production on a few of them. I imagine it will take a couple more years before I start seeing good production.
Matt worked on the fruit trees. Our early blooming plum tree is already starting to show growth. I fear we may have little to no fruit this year as we may loose buds due to expected frosty weather in the next couple of months. So will just have to see what Mother Nature has in store for us.
