    Would love to see a vid on how to properly prune - I plan on getting a vine in the future & find the pruning aspect quite daunting.

    Thank you so much for the info, Dan. You advised the Suffolk red when I asked for my tunnel. It's really superb - so a big thank you for that. They are even nice when a little green. I'm going to plant 3 more in the garden so I'll have a good look at the others you suggest.

    Great video, Dan! Always love seeing all your grape vines with ripe bunches of fruit on them. I look forward to seeing how my 'Lakemont Seedless' and 'Suffolk Red' do next year. I had to give them a big prune back a few weeks ago. I actually put a piece of the Suffolk Red in a cup of water indoors and it's got some roots now! I may plant that one on my allotment.

    Dear Dan,
    Just a great programme on growing different varieties of grapes in your truly amazing garden. Once again, I love the detailed experience you bring to all your gardening, this time, to the growing of different varieties of grapes.
    I live in south-western Ontario, Canada, and am well past gardening, except in my apartment windows. Nevertheless, I savour your programmes and enjoy vicariously all that you do.
    I always enjoy seeing your vesture, or lack thereof. This always adds another pleasurable dimension for me. This time I liked your purple tee shirt. Purple is my favourite colour, has been since I was a kid. I am curious as to what is pictured on the tee shirt. Perhaps, you could enlighten me. Also, the yellow mark. Is this the logo for a company? Please forgive me, I am not very well informed.
    Lastly, I savour your turns of phrase. Your use of the word “whilst” is especially fetching. Then, there is your pronunciation of the word “blue” as “blah”. I assume this is the common English pronunciation of this grape.
    As always, Dan, your programmes are wonderfully informative and even titillate at different levels.
    Thank you again for all the time you put into these videos. I look forward to them very much.
    Sincerely,
    Larry Clarence Lewis
    London, Ontario, Canada.

    Hi Dan, I live just North of Newcastle upon Tyne and have a Muscat grape vine in my greenhouse. It's been growing for 5 or 6 years now and have had some good bunches of grapes from it, although I can pick them now but still get the odd sour ones, if I leave them until end of October/November they'll be much sweeter.
    I regularly prune it and have 4 small seedlings growing outside in buckets.

    Thanks for the information Dan! I'll be looking into grapes next year but they'll need to be super hardy, Zone 4 in the USA. I'm looking into a few varieties of Hops also. Hops are suppose to be extremely beneficial to Honey Bees, and a must for homebrewing beer. Have an amazing new week and thanks again for taking the time to share valuable information. Many Blessings from Big Valley California, USA 😊

    I’m new at growing some form of Sonoma County purple grape 🍇-US zone 9, a,b,10 (micro climates)
    it showed up as a volunteer, so I don’t know much about it yet
    It gave lots of sweet tiny grapes the first fruiting season before I learned that bunches are supposed to be sacrificed to force larger growth in the other bunches-But the birds got them.
    The second season I had zero blooms and zero grapes --I thought I pruned it correctly as I followed a lot of pruning tutorials
    But it was just a very overgrown lush healthy non fruiting plant this year
    I’ve been trying to take cuttings off it to propagate, but so far I’ve not been successful

    Been picking my Lakemont seedless for a couple of weeks now and you are right they are very sweet although they don't have much texture and are quite small but they have a great flavour. I find that when they go from green to pale straw coloured they are at their sweetest.

    • @homegardens7682
      @homegardens7682  3 місяці тому

      True. Sometimes they do get bigger. I am guessing if less bunches were allowed to grow maybe they would allow some to get bigger.

      I dont but it could be a good idea. They seem to leave most alone, maybe they get a few but I get so many grapes here its not an issue.

    Do you think these varieties would be suitable in Plymouth? We have mild winters but wet summers. Thank you Vin

    Has anyone received the wrong variety from sellers? Dan's rhea grapes look lighter than mine. My rhea grapes look as dark as Venus, now I'm wondering if I've had Venus all along.

    Hey thanks for informative video. Would you recommend planting the grape vine in container or in the ground?

    • @homegardens7682
      @homegardens7682  3 місяці тому +1

      Hi. The ground is ideal but if no other option a large half wooden barrel pot can work well.

  • @KajsaDanielsson
    @KajsaDanielsson 3 місяці тому +1

    The others are : muskat odessa (yellow), boskoop glory (dark purple), Vanessa (pinkish seedless), Einset (very much like Vanessa), and fragoli neri (dark purple with gelatinous consistency and few seeds)

  • @trisha2584
    @trisha2584 3 місяці тому

    From your recommendation I bought a lakemont seedless. I have it in a pot at present and moved it nearer to the house for a bit of winter protection in Lancashire, England. However, when I moved it one branch fell off. I have put this in a pot and removed leaves - is it likely to produce a new vine at this time of the year and if so is there anything else I can do to improve success rate. Thanks

    • @homegardens7682
      @homegardens7682  3 місяці тому +1

      It may possibly root. Leave it in the pot and it may root in Spring.

    From all the grapes you grow, roughly how much in weight do you reckon you’re getting per year and across what span of time can they be harvested RIPE? Tia

    • @homegardens7682
      @homegardens7682  3 місяці тому +1

      Good question. I have never weighed them. I would guess maybe a month-six weeks give or take a bit.
