Low-chill climate didn't help us with the thinning any this year; despite
an almost tropical winter, I still ended up with snowball blooms and
annoying grape cluster-like applets that take forever to hand-thin before
they snap the branches off.

I did some hand-thinning yesterday, and it is exhausting.  Too many fruit!
