They grow like weeds, and get very unruly..If I do one a week maybe I will succeed......;o)
Then they say the old vines are the sweetest grapes?
Thanks. dodge

I don't have the grape-grape vines, I have muscadines (coon grapes) I trim every year & have a plentiful harvest. They make the best jelly.

I like the muscadines ...and the best time to prune them is in the fall/late fall if pruned every year, they will produce abundantly, some of the prunings can be using to start new vines also.
