Does anyone have a specific feed for vines that they use, or do you use general fertilizer?
Thanks

I use tomato fertiliser occasionally in the summer once the flowers have set, about once a month only, with handful of general purpose of chicken manure pellets over the root srea in early spring.

Are you still talking about grape vines or flowering vines?

Yes I'm still on grape vines. I'm posing the question again, as I've just acquired two more and the care advice differs again:

"To maximise production of fruit, water and feed regularly during the summer months"

The new ones already have lots of fruit on them - the one I have which has been subjected to a limited feed and water regime is not happy and has rarely produced fruit, so if ther soil conditions don't matter too much as per previous post, its in a decent spot for sun and light, then it leads me to ask if its down to feeding?
