The Art of Growing and Showing Grapes.

The Grape Vine.

The Grape Vine is much hardier than is realised, the Grape Vine can be grown with success in any cold, unheated Greenhouse when Grapes are not wanted until August or September. Earlier fruit is only to be obtained with the aid of artificial heat.

Let us consider the practical details of cultivation, since many are the same whether the Grape Vine is in a heated Greenhouse or in a cold one. Grape Vine can be obtained from many outlets like your local Nursery or Garden Centre, we have purchased good stocks from our town centre Woolworths store, at a very lost cost.

The best Grape Vines we have received to date were purchased from a specialist Nurseryman in Kent, United Kingdom. These Grape Vines were grafted to the highest standards, having two buds grafted to each root-stock.

All Grape Vines can be planted in the Autumn, in March in June or July. Perhaps the best plan for the inexperienced Grape grower is to prepare the border in autumn, and to obtain the Grape Plant in March and plant it then.

The preparation of the border is one of the most important of the several major steps in Grape Growing. To plant the Grape Vine in ill-prepared soil is certainly not to be recommended, the failure rate in Grape Growing can be mainly laid squarely at the feet of ill-prepared growing medium. Grape Vines that shrivel and fail to break bud properly in there second season is usually traceable to a faulty border where the plant is situated. We always advise the novice Grape Vine Grower to grow the Grape Vine in ever increasing pots for at least two years and then plant out into its final bed. Unless of course you have purchased a Grape Vine that is 3 to 4 years old.

We have in the last 20 years had good results growing Grape Vines out of doors, only recommend the varieties of White Grape for this.

We are always asked at our local meetings of Grape Growers, the question of inside verses outside Grape Growing. Either is suitable, the Growing of outdoor Grape Vines has great promise in the northern hemisphere, due to the temperature rises over the last 40 years or so, there are some very good crops coming through year after year.
