Hello.
I am building this pergola and will plant several grape vines around it so that they could climb on top. These are table grape varieties, like Concord, Thompson, etc.
I would like to make a guess that under a sheet of plexiglass the grapes will be sweeter because of warmer air and the glass will prevent birds from eating the grapes.
Am I right or wrong?
Also, my concern that the gap between the plexiglass and the rafters is very narrow (2") for the vines to get under the plexiglass on their own and I will have to train and guide them manually first.
Am I right or wrong?
Thank you for your comments.
