            | jeepinjeepin | Winston-Salem, NC | It was a rough morning. Went out to do some weeding and vine culling and found orange dust on every stump. I cut and pulled all of the stumps and inspected the vine ends before picking the best 8 to replant. Hoping that all the secondary roots will support the vines.  | 7/7/2013 4:55:48 PM |

            | jeepinjeepin | Winston-Salem, NC | It's my first year. I'm learning. They took a beating from the massive rain last night and the heat today. It's not looking good.  | 7/8/2013 5:49:18 PM |

            | jeepinjeepin | Winston-Salem, NC | I went ahead and cut the stumps to get that infected tissue away. I'm hoping they will survive with the secondary root structure. What systemic should I look for? Something I can find at the local hardware or big box store? | 7/8/2013 7:48:31 PM | 
		
            | jeepinjeepin | Winston-Salem, NC | I did get sevin dust when I went out to get more fence posts to expand the shade netting today. That has been put out.  | 7/8/2013 8:38:53 PM |
