Warming lights being tested at Kelowna vineyard doing their job as temperatures plunge

[Castanet News]

Things are looking good at a vineyard in South Kelowna that is testing an infrared light heating system to protect vines from extremely cold temperatures....

all of the sovereign opal vines survived the cold

maybe that should be researched

We need to scrape the vineyards. Stop growing booze. Get back to growing food again!

Great idea. Except that all the genetic grape material that was bred in Summerland has been destroyed. At least that is what I was told when trying to access that material some yrs ago.
I was also told that the same thing happened in Ontario. Very short sighted by the powers that be.
