buck shot, deer browse and fungus

After half a week of very heavy rain with humidity that made you feel like you were swimming, the clouds have cleared enough to see the forest through the rain. Everything grew soooo much, mainly just the grass and the Marquettes, but the entire place looks so much greener.

Along with the green, came the white downy mildew as well on the new shoots in row 13. As if those struggling vines needed anything else to slow down their start for the year, now I am picking off the new growth as it unfurls to take to my bug and fungus book to find out what is going on. Mold, mildew, fungus, and a couple little green aphids is what's going on.

The sun burns hotter by the day. Soooo dehydrated.
