I can't see your whole setup nor where you're located, but at that resolution I might see some sort of gall but since we don't know where you are can't work through it. As to the grapes themselves, could be a number of things including pruning, thinning, light availability, and so on but hard to determine with info provided, but if I were to WAG I'd say new vine and provide proper care to get it established to set good fruit...

Thank you -- I guess I am kind of rambling here and not getting to the point. Pal I do love the idea of wood verticals, but they are just too pricey . If i was planning to be here another 20 years I would consider but I think we will be moving within the next 5 years. With that, I want to update with resale in mind (and not spend too much $$(. I have 2 points; the first starts with the sliding patio door window treatment. While we rarely do close the blinds, (more for sun than for privacy)I still need that option. I could probably just get new slats to put in the track for the vertical (cause a few have sort of split and fallen off..)but I keep thinking that they just look so less than good in general. That started me thinking that I should consider perhaps some panels on a rod? Then I wonder because the blinds are 80 or 81 inches long (that little recess of course is not at 84"). Then I wonder if I should add same similar panels to the family room. Secondly- I think about how the couches are 10 years old or older, and are uncomfortable to sit on need replacing....I have looked somewhat but there are so few furniture stores any more and I barely see any blue shown though I love the blue...... . I do love the way the blue plays off all the beige(walls, carpet, cabinets etc). all I see when I look is beige/brown (which might work?) or reds and greesn which I dont think I want. Well I think you maybe helped me out here.I am thinking maybe I should just replace the slats in the vertical blinds... and then ask for help on my wall arrangements? But just to show how my brain works, after I semi came to the realization that I might just replace the verticals (because they ARE functional and they do work- I just have never loved them)... do you think a beige/tan couch could work well in here? and or do you think these would work if I kept the blue? (LINDEN PAISLEY in lake mist?) or if I did add panels would you go with a white like the blinds? Or just leave it alone and just replace /renew the vertical blinds? Here is a link that might be useful: lake mist linden?

I realize this is an old threat but have the same issue as bevangel-i-h8-hOuzz. New tankless water heater does not provide enough flow to keep water hot enough for the dishwasher to work effectively. We tried turning the hot water heater up above 120 degrees. Have tried running hot water continuously in the sink while running the dishwasher. Also tried pausing the dishwasher each time it goes through a fill to get the water hot in the sink before resuming. Any other suggestions? Does the dedicated small hot water heater under the sink do the trick? Right now I'm regretting the new tankless water heater.

Be careful, if they have not been making these for over a year, that means that the ones you buy have been stacked somewhere for that period of time and might be difficult to separate. Also just because no one makes a shingle with a particular name for the color does not mean someone isn't making the same color and using another name. Take a sample and check out all the places you can find that sell shingles. It is not likely that you are going to find a perfect match anyhow because of fading and weathering. Buy some that are just a bit darker and pretty soon they will match pretty close.
