May 10, 4:00pm - Applied Abound 2.08F to all vines in our new vineyard (in North Alabama)
May 10, 4:15pm - Left to go out of town for weekend
May 10, 5:00pm - Mother nature dumped .75 inches of torrential rainfall on still wet (from spray application) vines. Dang!
May 11-23 - Drought. Absolutely zero rainfall in North Alabama after May 10 torrent..
May 13, 9:00am - Got back in town. Applied Mancozeb to all vines. Prayed.
May 23, 3:30pm - Noticed small brown spots on periphery edges of most varietals (see attached picture). Dang!!! Pulled out some hair. Started to drink.
Looking for positive identification of disease of what to do moving forward. Symptoms are apparent on many leaves making it impractical and risky to defoliate since these are first-year vines with little vegetation.
What to do? Are we in trouble?
HELP!!!
Thanks, Charles Erwin
