What's happening in the field?

At the Missouri State Fruit Experiment Station

End of the growing season

October 31, 2014 by Marilyn Odneal

I expect the grape leaves will fall since the low temperature predicted for today may be in the 20s.

GDD base 50 accumulated since April 1 = 3556

Here is a comparison of the GDD base 50 accumulation for the past several years.

Year GGD accumulation base 50 April 1 to Oct 31
2014 3556
2013 3435
2012 4064*
2011 3853

*Early grape bud burst in March – 4370 GDD in season if March is counted

(Grape bud burst usually occurs around April 1)
