Grapes need more water in the early growth period or during the nutritional growth period, and less water in the late growth or fruiting period when the roots are weakened, to avoid injuring the roots and avoid affecting the quality.
The grapes must have a certain intensity of light during normal growth, but when the light is too strong, especially when the grapes are in the hard nucleation period, they are more prone to sunburn, which can be done by bagging or leaving the leaves on the plant to try to keep the leaves that can cover the fruit.
