Im from bali indonesia and working as a vineyard hand at hatten wines bali. We always do shoot thinning 4 weeks after pruning, it will helps the vine to get more air, allow sunshine to reach the flowers, and make the vine not so bushy. Your topic is very helpful for us.
Great Vlada, this video is helpful for me to get important information for me to learn treating my grape. I'm just beginning in growing up some grapes. Greetings from Indonesia.
Greetings to you, Vlada. I just started following your RU-vid channel. I am happy and impressed with what you are doing in the agricultural field. I follow you with passion and love from the Middle East. I am also pleased to share with you some agricultural expertise and experiences, if you do not mind, of course. Greetings to you, my dear
@@57Vlada I will definitely and gladly put the important notes that will greatly improve the performance of the experience, great love for what you are doing🙏🏻
Thank you Vlada, perfect timing! My vine is getting so overgrown. I have a question for you- do you know what variety your grapes are? My vine produces large, deep purple grapes which look similar to yours. Thank you! Much love from San Diego. Xx
Excellent tutorial for young growers like me. Now I know which stems to cut and which ones to leave. One quick question, if we leave entire cane from last year I stead of leaving couple of nodes, can we still have grapes. Thanks
Shalom Vlada my name`s Rafael thank you for share your grape experiences with us. It looks like Thompson or Pinot Noar variety I´m not sure. do you know?
@@57Vlada Shabat shalom for you and everybody from Táchira, Venezuela, land of Grace and Kindness. Therefore I think you have Concord grape in your vineyard. It's my last opinion. Thanks so much
Correct, leaves are needed for the photosynthesis, however you can remove some of the bottom leaves to bring more air flow to the plant. Thank you for watching by the way Joe. :)
Why do we have to remove vines hanging down ,I seem to get lots of grapes off my lower vines, they are good size , tast good.i live in Newcastle nsw,Austrailia
Hello. There is no rule to say you have to remove the lower vines. This is simply done because most growers prefer to have their vines growing upward for better ventilation, more sunshine and easier picking...I hope this helps.
Hi, thank you for your video. I was wondering about a video on powery mildew, what do you help fix that problem? The leases are curling up. I heard of "sulfur". Thank you.
Very helpful video, Thank you. I have a question. Do you allow the third shot ( close to the main vine, keep to next year ) to carry and produce the grape this year? thank you in advance for your help.
Such a helpful video! Thank you mam, two questions, do you take off some of those new 🍇 to have a bigger vine? And why and what you spray your vines? You mentioned
It's almost like anti bonsia with trying to keep new growth close to the main trunk and removed the thicker branches. Do you happen to know why it's best to remove the thicker offshoots?
@@57Vlada Yeah I get the part about wanting new growth for fruiting but they specifically will remove a thick 1 inch nub that has new growth growing out of that so that they can get new growth right from the main stalk. My guess is maybe less cut ends where fungus or other things can make ingress? Are grapes not good at closing off cuts as well as trees maybe? I'm new to grape growing so I don't know.
Mr. O, thank you for your interest in supporting our charity. Unfortunately we don't make wine but you are welcome to check our charity for other volunteering opportunities: www.vladav.com
@@57Vlada Ok. Thank you 😊. I typed in When and How to prune grapevine in the Midwest,and this video was one of the ones that popped up. Northern California is supposedly on the same latitude as us,but I'm not sure how mountain regions and Pacific weather influences it - Israel likewise ,they prune in Jan/Feb,but the Mediterranean is below the horizontal Carpathians. I'm trying to figure out the comparative weather - I have a trellis that's fallen in and I don't know how to rescue the intergrown grapevines. Would I be able to re-tie them to something?
@@ingridpear1882 Hi Ingrid, web should offer more specific instructions related to your particular region. As for me, I follow weather patterns and trim my wines 2-3 weeks before spring arrives. This may be different for every region.
This is what I found out: Interbreeding with siblings causes a higher risk of abnormalities in the chicks. This can be anything from lame legs/wings to extras or missing limbs. The chicks will often struggle to survive to their normal lifespan, often dying young and possibly in pain from internal issues.
Thank you very much. As for spraying I am currently exploring all natural options and would be glad to update the viewers once I find one worth recommending. :) Greetings from SoCal.
Greetings from Utah, USA. I am in year 5 of grape culture and each year I have a goal to learn another step for better fruit production. Thanks for showing clearly the shoot thinning goals. Very helpful. BTW, my grapes are dessert seedless: seedless Thompson and Flame. Good growing to you and yours!
@@57Vlada Thank you! I appreciate the info since my vine has also been showing mildew. I had used neem oil in the past but it has not been very effective. Maybe is the timing that I am missing.
Thank you! That really helps! It is the end of April and although i only have two vines for our personal consumption, this year, i did not prune the vines before they began to sprout. They have produced more grapes than usual because I think that I've been doing the winter pruning wrong. Your spring shoot pruning helps! Thank you again!
Your vedio is very very helpful,I have a grapes plant,but it is only one,I want to plant many grapes plant,I wish you can help me thank you soo much,more power, God bless.
Greetings from the Caucasus, specifically from Georgia. When a person loves a garden, he feels the plant's plight as well as its joy. Glad you are enjoying all of this. And I want to add that there is a very beautiful view from your yard. good luck.
I've been thinking about planting some grape vines, how many years do they have to grow before you can start harvesting your grapes? It sure seems like a lot to learn but its very interesting.
