I would think pruning would do the trick. I looked into grapes but decided on blueberries instead/first.

This link should be useful.

thanks for the ideas......

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?

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.
