Berries ripen unevenly throughout Veraison to Harvest time
What are the benefits of planting ‘Early Budding’ varieties?
Grape varieties that require relatively low temperatures at budburst are referred to as ‘early budding’, they are can be more prone to damage by spring frosts.
What Climates are ‘Early Budding’ varieties most useful for and why?
Climates with short growing seasons (often Cool Continental climates) - the early budding allows the vine to get a head start on getting to the Veraison stage
What are the benefits of planting ‘Late Budding’ varieties?
Because the buds of late-budding varieties need higher temperatures
to burst, they are less at risk of spring frosts.
What Climates pose the biggest risks for ‘Early Budding’ varieties and why?
Cool climates such as Continental climates, they are more prone to Spring frosts.
What are potential problems with planting ‘Early Budding’ varieties?
Spring Frosts, especially later Spring Frosts.
What Climates are ‘Late Budding’ varieties most useful for and why?
Late Budding varieties are better suited to warmer climates with longer growing seasons. These varieties typically need more time to ripen fully, and they may not be able to withstand the cold winters found in cooler climates.
What are potential problems with planting ‘Late Budding’ varieties?
If planting in cooler climates they may not be able to withstand the cold winters.
What Climates pose the biggest risks for ‘Late Budding’ varieties and why?
Cool Continental climates - ‘Late Budding’ varieties may not be able to withstand the cold winters.
What are the benefits of planting ‘Mid Budding’ varieties?
Because the buds of mid-budding varieties need moderate temperatures
to burst, they are slightly less at risk from spring frosts than early-budding varieties.
What Climates are ‘Mid Budding’ varieties most useful for and why?
