Show Fertilizer for Grapes A light application of stable manure ma-nure should be made before the plowing of bunch grapes, advises a farm expert. If this is not available avail-able nitrate of soda may be used and scattered around the vine at the rate of one-half pound per vine. Do not put this material close to the vine but scatter in a circle about one foot away. On light soils, acid phosphate and potash used at the rate of two pounds of phosphate and one-half pound of potash will prove beneficial. |
