August 17th, 2009 by Myarticle

Maybe you are one of the many people from around the world who want to know how to grow grapes. With that, then this article is going to share some unselfish information and resources that will make your desire a reality.

Now, please don’t get discouraged during the first year that you are learning how to grow grapes. Grapes bloom in the second year from the wood of the first year. What you will want to do the first year is keep an eye on the vines. Tend them carefully and try to keep them confined to the trellis. The last thing you want them to do is take over your yard!

Actually, I am getting somewhat ahead of myself. Let’s talk a little about growing your own grapes and cuttings. My grape vine will easily grow from cuttings during their dormant period. An right time to plant is right after the frost and before the buds swell. Okay then, lets now get back to discussing the vines. They don’t usually need much if any fertilization and can be planted fairly deep in the soil. Ranging from 3 to 5 feet is generally fine for them. In the beginning of this article, I mentioned a trellis. You need this to support your grapevines.

Here is a list of some grape growing guide and basic tools that you will need for planting grapes:

Shovel

Spade

Hoe

Rake

Hammer

Pliers

Wire Skewers

Drill

There are a few other helpful tools but for simplicity’s sake, I wanted to list the essential tools.

Finally, I will tell you this fact. Grapes love sunshine! If you give them full sun and the proper nourishment then you will have a lush vineyard that produces delicious fruit. Just keep in mind that a single grapevine can produce up to 20 pounds of grapes a year and a mature planting can live up to 40 years! With that, if you do the work correctly and properly the first time, your enthusiasm to learn on how to grow grapes can pay off tremendously for a long, long, time. Good luck with growing grapes.
