|
How can extreme heat effect vine growth |
Can cause photosynthesis to slow or stop. Water stress can also prevent photosynthesis by shutting the stomata to prevent water loss with limits the intake of carbon dioxide needed |
|
How does temperature effect different grape varieties |
Late ripening varieties need greater amount of heat through the growing season to ripen sufficiently. Early ripening varieties will need less heat and will ripen early in warm climates. |
