How should you care for grapes?
user
Grapes like sandy soil that is not too wet, so make sure to let the ground dry between waterings. Grapes often grow far more fruit than they can sustainably produce. Prune them aggressively in the early spring before the sap starts to flow while it is still cold. One method of pruning is to leave two to four vine lengths with about 10-15 buds each from the last year's growth, and leave a joint for this years growth to grow. Wire these vine lengths up to your trellis, and enjoy the grapes in the fall!
