Greetings
I am looking for some good reading material on growing vines. I have one heck of a green thumb and one heck of a tongue for wine. So I figured I would put my skills to use and have some fun at the same time.
I think I want to start some Catawba vines, as hey seem to be hearty in my area of PA.
Some basic questions in the mean time:
From what I read, about 100 pounds of grapes will make enough juice for a 6 gallon carboy. Does that sound about right?
Whats the estimate on how many vines I would need in order to produce 100 pounds of grapes? (I know thats a very loaded question)
Now, where to buy? Shall I attempt to buy local or via the mail?
Thanks all.
