I disagree, to a point. A first-year must focus on balance. More leaves lead to more root development. Therefore, removing all the laterals will slow root development and could possibly lead to too much weaker growth on the one shoot and a small root system. That imbalance could lead to winter kill. If your winters are mild this may not be a problem. What I do for a first-year is to train the leading shoot upwards, while leaving the laterals to grow out. Just be careful to not let the laterals lay on the ground because they may get mildew from the dampness. In the following spring I will remove the lower layerals and maybe all of them if the trunk is not tall enough to form lateral cordons. In regards to pruning to adjust growth speed, that is applicable after your roots are established. In regards to the tape gun, many clones of the original are horrible. The tape holder on them is made too small for tape you can purchase easily and locally and the included tape is too narrow to staple reliably. I have the original tape gun on order and hope that it will work well. We'll see.

Cool. I just pruned back to one shoot. Then immediately after read an article that said NOT to do that first year to help with root development... Glad this is also a good way to do it

I know! You could use that tape gun on so many plants. You could train blueberry branches(or any young branches) to stakes, secure dragon fruit cactus up a trellis, etc. If you can put nursery tape on that thing, I think I'll nut. lol

Is it ok to prune young grape vines like yours in the middle of the summer, or should I wait until next year?
@user-zy9yg2eu5t3 жыл бұрын
Pruning In the summer requires a really specified skill. It is called stamping. Bend the the vine over and stamp hard on it 69 times. Cover the whole thing in mud and leave it for 2 years. Dig it up and then throw it away. Replant a new vine and start again

Can you remove those extra shoot growths at any time (i.e. heat of summer)?

I really wish I got this. I planted a Concord grape vine last year, pruned it as best as a beginner could, and the shoot just grew into a 9 foot whip. I just pulled it out today and threw it out but I am sure I did something wrong and will try again this year. Was I supposed to let it grow that long or should I have cut off the top at some point?
@CLoZe145 жыл бұрын
I think if you prune it down to one vine in the spring, you're supposed to cut it off later when you want it to start growing horizontally.
@doityourselflivinggardenin79863 ай бұрын
Wow, you got really good growth and you pulled it out? Folks, don't do this! Simply prune it in the spring to get horizontal cordons to grow from the whip. What you have is a bull trunk. Bull trunks are fine, but bull laterals are not. My guess is that you let only one shoot grow by pruning the others away. For a first-year vine, that may not have been a good thing. Too much energy on one shoot and possibly not enough root growth for balance.

I've been finding these thick trailing vines with grape like leaves throughout my grass and I can't figure out what it is, I haven't seen grapes so it can't be a grape vine. Does anybody know what I'm talking about??
