This video goes into detail on how to dig a hole, prepare soil, types of soil to use and an overall in depth explaination of how to properly plant a grape vine.
Thank you all for watching!! Make sure to subscribe for more content from my channel, and leave a like if you enjoyed! Any questions or comments you have i will answer for you!! And always remember, keep planting!!!
I just bought a grape plant at Costco and it’s my first time to plant like this, and I’ve learnt from your video the basic things in planting grape vine. Thanks
Stark Bros are tops in my book! I initially bought 6 bare root vines from them. They immediately grew and 2 plants actually produced grapes. They were small but OMG they were good, barely made it to the house to share with wife. Next year I bought 7 more bare roots that grew even more vigorous than the others. Canadice grapes are GOOOOOD!!!
Thanks for the tip of digging a little deeper and making up the difference with the fresh material. Wish I had thought of that. But I'll try to remember for the next ones.
My pleasure. Another tip that I didn't share would be to make sure and spread cow manure every couple of months around the outside of the hole size you originally dug out. That way, as the plants roots spread out, it's doing so into good soil. Good luck!!!!
Your welcome!!! Glad to be a help.....i greatly encourage you to start planting as many things as you can right now especially with all of this instability in the world.
It would be helpful to see a follow-up video to see how the plant is doing over time. I'd like to know 1. about the grapevine platform you use for the plant to grow on, 2. how often to prune the vine, and how to prune it for best yield, and 3. what are the best light, heat, and water conditions to adjust sweetness of the grapes, .4 best time to harvest them, and lastly, just how did your grapes turn out. How do you care for the vine out of season?
Omg I know how you feel!! They are crossing Concord with muscadine. I just got one that is crossed with muscadine also called Razzmatazz. It is also seedless. What is so unique about muscadine grapes are they have an extra chromosome. This makes it disease resistant and pest. I live in South Carolina Muscadine grows wild here.
Wow!! Thank you so much for going into such great detail. I feel confident that I can go and do this myself now, and I really dont have much of a green thumb. Thanks for sharing. Would love to see more videos about this subject matter.
Glad to hear this. Keep learning and keep planting!!! Thanks for watching. If you haven't yet, check out my follow video on the growth of those grapevines.
Thanks for a super video! How does the plant attach to the poles, lines, etc. and how long before the grapes start to grow off of the vine? Again, thanks for a super video.
Glad you liked it. The vine naturally start growing up the pole and once it gets long enough to reach the lines you kind of just coerce it a bit around the line and from then on it naturally keeps going. It only took 1 year for me to see grapes. You can check out my 1 year follow up.
Thank you for your well done video. Most people say after planting your grapevine must give water to it. Did you give water after you planted your grapevine and how often do you give water and fertilizer to it?
Thanks for your kind words. I have mine set up on a timer since I live in hot Florida. Mine gets watered roughly 2 times per day for 8 minutes each time with a mist spray. As far as fertilizer, I barely do anything. Maybe twice per year but I'm not really sure it's even needed. If you watch my follow, you'll see how well my grapevines have done in a year.
I just got my concord plant from Home Depot and am trying to get precise directions. Am I being presumptuous with having to irrigate (well) the newly planted vine once put in the ground??
Great detailed information. One minor observation though. You are planning so close to the pole and not giving enough strength to hold the pole firm; unless you had the base packed with some concrete material. Thanks for making and sharing the video.
I'm not a professional but at this point I would highly suggest waiting until next year in the spring so your grapevine can get well established before the cold months. However, if you don't mind taking a risk of possibly losing it to the cold, you could take the risk and see what happens. Good luck and thanks for watching and taking an interest in gardening!!!
I didn't really put too much manure if thats what your referring to but it seems the grapevine really took well to it in a whole. You can watch the 1 year f/u to see how it turned out.
What's up Carlton? :) I live near Tampa. I planted about 4 muscadine grape vines about 4 years ago on a different property I owned and within a year and a half I had probably 100's of clusters of grapes!!!
Marcus Dunmire I have thought about doing RU-vid reviews to monetize them$. Are you considering this as well. Unboxing Therapy and Anne of All Trades are my two favorites that would give me some inspiration and ideas. I just finished a 200’ fence. I’m thinking I might try my hand at posting that, the “how-to”, the progress, and the materials/brands. The editing is the detail work. What are some of your other videos?
@@claytondelanie it's kind of what I'm looking to do but I also just like the learning and teaching aspect of these types of video's. I absolutely love planting so I figured why not try and teach those that want to learn.
@@sowingseedsfarms9252 Well that's a positive attitude. You're trying to help people. I'm trying to make a buck. I wouldn't be done what I'm doing if I hadn't viewed the Anne of All Trades channel and many others. Interesting story from a lady in the town where I lived for awhile (I'm in KY now)-- www.thv11.com/article/news/local/ark-mother-of-four-builds-home-by-watching-youtube-tutorials/385353439
I have been grow a grape vine in a container it is Dying I think I need to plant it in the ground is it a good time to plant it in the ground now or should I wait until next year but it is definitely dying I think because it needs more room to grow
This kind of depends on the hardiness of the plant. Meaning, if you plant now, can the grapevine easily take the cold of the winter? If it's questionable I might wait. Otherwise, you could try and figure out why it's dying. Maybe too much water, or not enough water, does it get enough sunlight?, etc. I know you mentioned the container being to small for the roots but in my experience that only kills it if it's been pot bound for a good long time to the point where there's not much dirt left and it's mostly just roots. Anyway, if it's dying, I would take action and do one way or the other otherwise I think we know the outcome of that. Hope this helps.
The biggest part of the root system is typically 3 feet down and out but the smaller roots can grow up to 30 feet after fully mature. Hope this helps. I would probably try to find another spot for them.
I have about 10 feet of space but I have been to quite a few vineyards and I see around 6 to 8 ft. on average. Of course your still gonna have to prune cause these things grow like crazy.
I have never had any issues of animals eating my grapes but if I did, I would put up some kind of wiring/fence around it for protection. Also, you could get a spray bottle and fill it with water and add some garlic powder and cayenne pepper and spray the leaves. That usually helps until it rains and then you would have to reapply.
just wondeing where you got all this info about planting a potted plant they forgot to tell you to loosen the roots of a pot bound plant it will continue to grow in circle and it may die in a yr or 2 you can dip it in a bucket of water wash dirt of the roots so you can spread them out in the hole
If you refer back to the video you will see I commented on how loose the soil was and that it was not pot bound. I appreciate your attention to detail and the feedback. Thanks for watching!!!
@@sowingseedsfarms9252 i was talking about your plant in the pot when you took it out of he pot you could see all the roots growing ina circle they will continue to grow in a circle because you did wash the dirt off so the roots would hang down the you could fan them out in the hole its your plant do as you see fit .
I would avoid using the soil that came with grapevine because it is a risk that soil is infected from store or from nursey(farm) and all diseases spread in my garden
Why not mix the bags of soil In a wheelbarrow and then you have it ready. Also get some coconut fiber and mushroom compost and to your mix looks alsome
I guess it's that's good and bad all at the same time. At least you can be confident in the fact that none of it was pre scripted like pretty much everything out their. It's raw and real with errors and all.
Can you please elaborate on what this statement is based on? I definitely don't claim to know it all but would appreciate your feedback. If you watch the one year follow up, you will see the results are nothing short of fantastic imo.
