WineEast Grapegrowing The Geneva Double Curtain training system originally was developed for vineyard sites with high-vigor capacity. of those systems into vertically divided systems in an attempt to balance excessive vegetative growth by production of additional fruit. The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service has been evaluating the use of divided-canopy training systems over the past five years on both red and white Pierce���s disease-tolerant hybrids in the Gulf Coast region. As good As it gets. Geneva CE NT RAL Double Curtain The Geneva DouTEXAS OK AR ble Curtain (GDC) Lubbock training system, Dallas NM LA developed in Geneva, N.Y., by Dr. El Paso Texas A&M Trellis Nelson Shaulis, trial sites Austin Austin County Vineyards is a benchmark Rolling Hills example of a Vineyards MEX divided training Gulf of Mexico system originally intended for juice and hybrid winegrape production on vineyard sites having high vigor capacity (see photo at left). Since its adoption with juice grapes, the GDC system also has found increased popularity with interspecific hybrid winegrapes. The winegrape variety Norton (also known as Cynthiana) is often grown on this system due in part to two of its major morphological characteristics: procumbent (downward or trailing) shoot growth and moderate cluster size. The high-wire fruiting zone of the GDC system accommodates the downward shoot growth, while the increased yield from the divided canopy helps to improve yield per acre of a relatively modest cluster size. Because Norton works well with GDC, growers are now experiencing better economic returns Winery��Chillers�� 1.5��to��15��Hp��/��R���404A�� Model��DCS�� ���New�����2013��Energy��Savings��Models�� Could��save��up��to��$350.00��per��year���� Copeland��Scroll��Compressor�� Built��in��self��diagnosis���� Remote��tank��and��pumps�� CALL:�� Natural Corks Champagne Corks Twinline Corks Bartops VISION�� Wine Stopper G-Cap�� Screw Cap 54 W in es & V i ne s M AR C H 20 13 800���849���4264�� Sales Representatives Chris & Liz Stamp info@lakewoodcork.com Lakewood Cork 4024 State Route 14 Watkins Glen, NY 14891 lakewoodcork.com 607-535-9252 607-535-6656 Fax 2��to��15��Hp��/��R���404A�� MODEL��DCP�� Package��Chiller��with��Tank��&��Pumps�� Easy��&��Quick��to��Install�� Copeland��Scroll��Compressor�� Tank��and��Pumps��built��in�� �� Ask��about��QUICK��SHIP��&��FREIGHT��ALLOWANCE��SPECIALS��
