General Comments:
Dog Ridge is suited only to very course-textured, infertile soils. Excessive vigour and low productivity result from its use in more fertile soils. Excess potassium uptake may increase juice pH. Susceptible to zinc deficiency. May be suited to scion varieties of low vigour such as Muscat Gordo Blanco.
