L. Peter Christensen, Robert H. Beede, William L. Peacock http://xtf.cdlib.org:8080/xtf/data/pdf/calag60-2/calag60-2.pdf Foliar spraying was found to be an effective method to rapidly increase boron levels in most vegetative and reproductive tissues in grapevines. The reduction of fruit-set deficiency symptoms with a pre-bloom or bloom spray was immediate but not complete. Foliar sprays applied during the previous fall were more effective in reducing such symptoms than pre-bloom or bloom sprays. This may be due to the earlier incorporation of boron in reproductive tissues, especially dormant buds. Grapevine foliage is also more tolerant to boron postharvest in the fall, when 1 pound per acre of actual boron can be safely applied. Spring and summer sprays of boron should be limited to 1/2 pound per acre per application to avoid phytotoxicity. http://xtf.cdlib.org:8080/xtf/data/pdf/calag60-2/calag60-2.pdf Sun, 01 Jan 2006 12:00:00 GMT Drip irrigation can effectively apply boron to San Joaquin Valley vineyards. William L. Peacock, L. Peter Christensen http://xtf.cdlib.org:8080/xtf/data/pdf/calag59-3/calag59-3.pdf Boron deficiency of grapevines occurs occasionally on the east side of the San Joaquin Valley. Its symptoms include shot berries, shoot-tip dieback and leaves with yellowish mottling between veins. Boron must be applied carefully because the range between deficiency and toxicity is narrow. Our research evaluated the safety and efficacy of boron fertigation of grapevines using drip irrigation. Applying boron annually at 1/3 pound per acre to a moderately deficient vineyard elevated tissue levels into the adequate range within 2 years. However, the amount of boron used in a fertigation maintenance program will vary with leaching potential. Blade samples should be routinely monitored following fertigation and fertilizer amounts adjusted accordingly to avoid boron toxicity or deficiency. http://xtf.cdlib.org:8080/xtf/data/pdf/calag59-3/calag59-3.pdf Sat, 01 Jan 2005 12:00:00 GMT
