Securing Young Grapes Cuttings (Tarlac Mini Farm)

Securing the new Red Cardinal Grapes. People where asking why do I need to cover our grapes with screens. There are bugs that loves to eat our baby grape leaves also caterpilars eat them like crazy . I do not want to use bug spray or any pestisides .
My solution is to cover them with screen. The Screen prevents the bugs from eating the leaves and the birds/bats from eating the fruits. It also works as a wind and rain barrier. With the cost of pestiscides today and their destructive side effects this screen is a cheap and wise solution.
If you look closer on the picture you can see our growing red cardinals 3 months old.Once they get out of the restrictive growth screen , we expect them to start to go on full bloom
