    I need help!

    I have been working really hard for the past going on 3 seasons to get a vine to the point it fruits. My dog decided today was the day to rip the vine apart. It was a pretty clean break near the ground. IS THERE ANY WAY TO FUSE THE VINE TOGETHER! My dogs life is hanging in the balance...

    Vine/first fruit questions

    I was wondering how long my concord vine will grow? Is this it's max length or will it grow more along the top of my arbor? It's 3 years old this year. I've never had a vine this old. I'm assuming those little clusters in the picture are grape clusters. They are all over the place on the...

    My leaves were hit with frost

    I live in Michigan I believe it's Zone 6 My vine is 2 years old and about 10 feet long. We had a couple really cold nights/mornings and had a hard frost. All of the leaves are brown and probably dead. I understand this will happen eventually once winter hits. I just want to know if my...

    Vine Update

    I have a weird situation. I planted this vine in spring of 2012 but I over-watered it and it pretty much died. It sprouted buds in 2013 but then lost it's leaves to frost (even though I covered it). It made another come back this spring and is finally doing great in my opinion. I will post...

    Vine update

    I posted some pictures a couple weeks ago of my 2 grape plants that apparently had the leaves frozen off... even though I covered them. I live in Michigan. One plant the concord has sprouted a new little shoot/leaf the Niagara still has no new growth. I am pretty sure the Niagara is still...

    I need help

    Are my plants dead? I saw that there was frost in the forecast so last night I covered both of my newly planted grape plants. Before work I went out around 6:00am and took the sheets off so they could warm up and get some sun. When I get home from work my wife informs me that the leaves all...

    New to the Grape game... need help

    I planted one Niagara and one Concord grape vine on my arbor a week ago. My arbor is a wood arbor with I believe (6) 6x6 posts with landscaping timbers going across the the top. Anyways I dug a deep hole filled it in with soil, sand, and compost and mixed it all together. I planted both...

    Help! With Grapes

    I planted my first 2 grape plants this spring. I am guessing it's called a cane but it was just a woody stem with no leaves and some roots. I read up on how to plant them and just follow the directions. We clay soil so I added some peat moss in the hole and around the roots. And gave the...
