This was very helpful to me just because I am totally in the dark about growing grapes---muscadines. Purchased a couple of plants last week and ready to get their bed ready while it is still dormant time for them. Thanks for your help. Jesus bless.
Thanks for a very helpful how-to video! The director chose an effective format for instructional media, one person showing another & explaining as she works. This was almost as good as having an Extension person show me in the field. I'm in Wisconsin's Master Gardener Volunteer training now & will recommend this.
+StephanieEastwood That's awesome, Stephanie! We're actually apart of the Oklahoma Extension Service so all of our information is research based. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for posting a video that's so clear and easy to understand. So many people get over complex and waffle about stuff but you nailed it. I feel as if I can now go ahead and prune in a couple of months time and make a reasonably decent job of it or, at the very least, not decimate my vines!! Cheers.

Very good. For after you are done prunning back - what do you do with the canes? I want to compost everything but every grape vine cane wants to start over growing the next spring. I only want new plants when I want new plants. So what do you do? Closest luck I've had is drown the clippings for a few months over winter then they don't come back. Though always too much trouble. ideas from anyone?
Since grapes are exclusively propagated from cuttings (rather than seeds), "new plants" ARE last year's cuttings. The cuttings I don't want to use, I clip them into little pieces and use them as mulch...sitting on top of wood chips, they dry out and die rather than rooting. If you live in an area that collects "yard waste" for composting you could send them away that way too, I suppose.
Elsa Perry It shouldn't take long for the plant to produce grapes but for the first couple of years the fruit needs to be cut back so the vine can grow stronger and hold the grapes down the road. Here's a great article talking about grape production. www.almanac.com/plant/grapes
How will she "replace the cordon later if necessary" ? Does she mean she will let other branches grow & let one get thick & then cut off the old one? If so, how would that be done & where?

I loved this video so much: (John 15:6 KJV) "If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned."

Great video.
so 50 buds per plant is good for most any grape vine? we have somerset seedless and concord seedless in Maine.
I heard from farmers 50 to 70 buds per vine is good. I'd go with 60
How long does it takes for grapes to give fruits..

I'm not at all very experienced but I assume you would need to use a cane nearest to the head of the vine to use as an insurance cordon
