投稿の詳細: 枝付け　Training

枝付けといっても
ワイン葡萄の場合は
フルーティング・ワイヤ
（コルドン）の周りに種枝を
巻き付けてゆく作業。

一日中良い天気で気温も
18度くらいに上がったようだ。
どうりで昼間は薄着でも汗ばむ
程。ただ、4時を回って夕暮れ
時はかなり寒い。朝も日陰では
氷が張るほどだ。明日も
霜注意報が出ている。そろそろ
桃が芽吹き始めているので
桃農家は気が気ではないだろう。

臥竜公園の桜もまだ開花したとは
聞いていない。これだけ朝夕冷えると
いくら昼間が暖かくても急に
進むことも無いようだ。

さて、明日はドイツから古い友人が
来る予定なんだが。

There are few trainings during
growing season. This time of year
training means wrapping main branch
around the fruiting wire (cordon).

It was warm today whole day and the
temperature went up to 18C degrees
at maximum. No wonder I sweat under
the sun even in light wear. But after
4pm it was cold with north wind.
Early in the morning the water freezes
in the shadow. We have frost warning
tomorrow morning. With the bud bursting
of peaches, the peach growers should be
very anxious about such cold temperature.

I have not heard of the flowering of cherry
trees at the Garyu Koen Park that is famous
for the cherry blossoms. With such low
temperature in the morning and evening,
the flowers would not develop so quickly.

Tomorrow I am suposed to have an old
friend visiting me back from Germany.
