Great article on the surprisingly large grape harvest last year. Last time they got so many grapes, it took “at least two years to work off.” The quote that caught my eye implies that growers consider grapes and almonds as the two alternatives, but sense that both markets are saturated. They need more options that bring stable revenue.
Pot? There’s a proposition on the ballot in the fall from what I hear…how much water does it take?
And, fwiw, when I read the headline, I thought you were talking about dessert wines, until you said “eat” in the next sentence…who would eat a dessert wine??
The grapes themselves are very tasty.
Dunno how much water pot needs. I can’t think where I’d go to find an evapotranspiration coefficient for pot. Maybe the hemp people know. Now I’m curious; I’ll look around.
At first, I thought it was “muskrats”, and figured you were getting all redneck on us …
