SETTING THE VINE NURSERY

Preparation of the soil: After deep ploughing, organic improvement and disinfection, we earth up the soil, spread a chemical conditioner and set a plastic mulching.

Planting: We pierce the plastic according to the required density and manually place the vines into the soil.

Irrigating: We abundantly spray the vines to eliminate air traps and avoid root asphyxia.

CULTIVATING AND MAINTAINING YOUR VINE NURSERY

Tilling: Each week, we work the surface of the soil with a cultivator (hoe), to eliminate weeds, aerate the soil and ease the penetration of sprayed water. The use of chemical herbicides may be necessary.

Irrigation: We regularly spray the soil to foster the growing of roots and shoots until they reach the required size.

Treatment: We also frequently use preventive or curative plant-protecting agents to fight vine pests such as downy mildew, oidium and grapevine leafhoppers.
