Keep vines under control to get more grapes.
Grapevines are rampant plants that need to be kept under control.
Growing grapes is a cinch (OK, so perhaps wine-making is morechallenging) so what exactly is involved?
Lets look at what to do, step by step:
1.
Grapes are rampant plants, so youre likely looking at a tangle of leaves and stems come early summer.
Weak shoots can be rubbed out.
Foam-coated wire is ideal as its strong yet soft.
Your grape will now pump all its nutrients into the developing bunches.
As they swell, thin them out to one per 61cm (2ft) of stem.
Ill warn you, though, that its a labor of love!
