  • What if you've already planted on a double trellis 2 ft and 4 ft height about 2 years ago? Remove it and prune off the branches at that junction from the main trunk? I think I got the method from an Georgia extension service pamphlet. Already having some problems with vines touching ground and rooting quickly.

  • @stannorx Yes, if you're growing muscadines I'd remove the wire at 2' height and prune off arms from the trunk at that point.

  • @goGardenNow I just found two muscadine grape vines that were overgrown on a tree - we cut down the tree and are going to make a trellis for it, but how to know where to cut back to start it growing on the trellis? We were told that the vines were planted more than 10 yrs ago but were never put on a trellis just left to grow wild on the tree. Thank you for your help

  • @rbourgetgras It's hard to say how far to cut it back. What kind of trellis are you planning to construct?

  • Thank you for this video. I just moved into a home that has vines that seem to be over grown and have not been pruned for a very long time,the vines are grown all the way to the ground. i would like to have a good fruit next year what do you suggest i do? where and when do i start to prun thease vines?

  • @jessitreasures You can cut them back off the ground any time, because you wouldn't be losing that much foliage. But to do a renovation job, it's best to do it mid-winter to early spring. These videos describe how to prune, but the ideal form is a T-shape trained to a single horizontal wire.

  • hi me and my grandfather have an you pick orchard and we also make wine out of some we grow on the same type of trelis but once our vines are established every 5 foot we get an shoot that is coming from the main vine and bury it about a foot in the ground and we started a few test vines and the following year they produced more because it is getting more nutrients that way. we also strip most the leaves off the vine when the first crop is present it makes a second crop about a month later

  • Thank you for the great information!

  • I wouldn't bother protecting the large cuts. The tissue will dry and heal over very well. We plant vines 20 feet apart.

  • could you use grafting wax to protect your large cuts? how much room between vines do you recommend?
