Watering in Fall

[CowboyRam]

How long before the first freeze should I stop watering my vines?

approximately 40% of root growth of grapes is done in the fall after harvest is complete. a good watering is necessary at that time. continual watering may cause additional growth that will not survive winter. I would stop at least one month before your average first freeze in your location. even that might not be enough to toughen new growth. if you have a had harvest wait about a week do a heavy watering about two gallons a plant and then stop.

No harvest, these are vines just planted this spring.

stop now should be easily a month before first freeze in your location
