The 1883 edition is not indexed or illustrated. The earliest vine varieties need about five months to ripen, while types like Black Hamburgh benefit from six months. Late varieties, such as Muscat of Alexandria and Gros Guillaume, require nearly eight months, although Alicante and Lady Downes can ripen from April to October. Grape-growers should plan their crops accordingly. Before starting the vines, it’s essential to wash and clean them, as well as the Vinery, and ensure the border is well-watered. Regarding temperature, some experienced fruit-growers prefer to adapt to circumstances rather than adhere strictly to set rules. Historically, high night temperatures have been common during the early stages of forcing vines, but recent trends favor lower temperatures, which are better for the vines and more economical. When comparing recommended night temperatures for vines during their growth period, they often exceed the average temperatures in regions most conducive to vine growth. This discrepancy is exacerbated by the fact that these high temperatures occur under conditions that amplify their negative effects, such as forcing vines in a Vinery under cloudy skies and during prolonged darkness.
