I have a 2 year old concord seedless and a 3 year old flame grapes growing up a pergola. Any experienced grape growers out there? My question is how often do you water them and do they need fertilizer. My grapes seem to be growing good. I made the mistake though that I thought the flame was only two years old and the concord is three years old but after checking my records, it was the other way around. However, thinking that the flame was only two years old, I pruned all the clusters leaving only 6 but on the other hand, I left all the clusters on the concord and now there are about 2 dozen grape clusters growing and beginning to get ripe. I should have pruned the concords heavier than the flames. I water them once a week. Any sugestions or advice?

GB I think if you will post this down in the Garden Forum you will get more resonse. I have never grown grapes but the muskadines grow wild here in SC. Lots of people make jams/jellies out of them. LB |
