Why take this course?

Vineyards have become more and more popular in recent years, but growing grapes takes time and lots of practice if you are to manage your vines properly.  There are many steps involved to turn grapes into wine, and it all starts with the irrigation system.  Your new grapes are most sensitive to diseases and failure during their first months and having irrigation that works properly and reliably will make operating your vineyard much more manageable.  This Course is on how to design an efficient irrigation system, one that pays attention to detail and looks at all of the factors necessary when designing and laying out your system. 

Questions such as "What is your Soil Texture?"  Different soils hold different amounts of water.  Moisture content will change, not just with texture but with depth.  What is your water source?  How many gallons (liters) per minute do you have available? and at what operating pressure?  The irrigation is a critical part of growing grapes and making wine.  In many climates, without proper irrigation your grapes will die or be more susceptible to diseases that can ruin your vineyard.

Beyond irrigation, knowing how to manage your vines is another critical part of having a successful vineyard and crop.  Our homeowner, who is also the vineyard manager, will be explaining her methods  in tending the vines throughout the season and up until harvest.

This Course will cover all of these topics and more, in a straight-forward, easy to understand manner accessible to anyone who wants to better manage their new or existing grapevines. 

Thanks for joining Marc and I as we as we guide you through the steps to successfully manage and care for your small vineyard!

Was hoping for more information regarding computational hydraulics of the Drip Irrigation System. There was some but it would have been nice to have more information.
