  • Adam gets it

    Adam’s perspective is refreshing and real in a way that completely bypasses all of the artifice, superficiality and problematic premises that most of us have come to associate wine with, whether or not we know it, and his guests are a rare collection of truly free thinkers.

How To Control Pierce's Disease Organically with Drew Herman
Q: What practical steps can growers take today to mitigate PD risk?
Adopt regenerative practices: diversify cover crops, apply sap analysis to guide foliar nutrition, use balanced mineral strategies (calcium, magnesium, iron) carefully, and consider high-tolerance/rootstock-compatible varieties while exploring low-input, ecology-centered management.
How To Control Pierce's Disease Organically with Drew Herman
Q: What role should breeding play in solving PD challenges?
Breeding should expand beyond vinifera to include regional and native grape genetics that show resistance or tolerance, enriching the gene pool and reducing reliance on pesticides while preserving flavor profiles.
How To Control Pierce's Disease Organically with Drew Herman
Q: Is nutrition a cure or a mitigating factor for Pierce's Disease?
Nutrition helps support plant health and can delay progression, but it is not a cure; improper mineral management (e.g., excessive copper or zinc) can worsen issues, so timing and balance are critical.
How To Control Pierce's Disease Organically with Drew Herman
Q: What is Pierce's Disease and how does it affect grapevines at the cellular level?
PD is a bacterial infection that travels through the xylem, causing biofilm formation and blocking water transport; the vine responds by thickening cell walls and sequestering minerals, which can isolate the pathogen but may eventually girdle the plant if the infection becomes severe.
Gifts from the Sky - Collaborating with Owls and Songbirds in Vineyards
Q: You have such a great message. Let's start by, could you introduce yourself and what you do for a living?
Matt Johnson introduces himself as a professor in the Department of Wildlife at Cal Poly Humboldt, with a focus on birds in agricultural ecosystems and a broader interest in vertebrates within vineyards and farming landscapes.
