BECOMING BIODYNAMIC

The time has come and we are starting with our first biodynamic excercise on the vineyard. We have brought 3 barrels (thanks to Aurelio and Mario) and collected rain water inside. Tomorrow at sunrise we will add component number 501 (quartz cristal stored for 3 months in cow horns), which will be manually mixed for 2 hours. After that exercise we will spray this liquid onto 10 hectares of the vineyard. The same procedure we will repeat on Sunday morning. The goal of this practice is homeopatic to give the plants better resistance and a healthier growth to optimise sun light energy. At this time of the year several weeks before the harvest the first biodynamic practice needs to be applied.
