Re: [nafex] Grape stems dead?

Thanks, Devin.

Hard to say what side of the trunk was affected because the entire
bottom is bare. This occurred probably mid-summer.

It's odd to me that it wasn't just damage to one part of the bark but
that the bark was just completely gone as if someone had peeled it off
and up.

Regards,

Jay

What side was the split facing? If it was S or W, I think you might have your answer. A dilute coat of 1/2 white latex paint / 1/2 water has worked for me to prevent this type of damage.
