It's spring time!  TIme to finish pruning the bearing vines and get the young vines ready for the growing season. We cut back the vines to 4 or 5 buds at the base in their 2nd season so they can grow a strong shoot that will become the trunk for the new vine. The grow tubes protect the new growth from wind, deer and weed sprays.  Very soon we will build the trellis for these vines. Stay tuned as we show you their progress this year!
