The “Grape Guide”
The Pest Management Guide for Grapes in Washington (aka Grape Guide) is updated each year in January or February. It is a grower’s guide to control diseases, insects, weeds, and vertebrate pests on commercial grapes. Weed controls – both soil-active and foliage-applied herbicides – are outlined for new and established plantings. Disease and insect controls are coordinated to pest and crop stage.
