moving grapevine
« on: September 17, 2015, 16:47 »
I got a grapevine a couple of years ago which has done nothing as I think it doesn't get enough sun and the drainage is probably poor. I've got a better place for it now and will dig a big hole and improve the drainage with broken bricks etc before planting.

My queston is, having sat there for 2 years and not grown is it worth transplanting? or is it going to be stjnted somehow? It looks healthy enough, just literally has not grown at all.

Presumably I should wait til its shed its leaves before moving?

Thanks!

I have similar problem put it in my greenhouse and its taken over. I would like to move it outside but I am concerned about wasps after watching Monte Don. Never seen anything so awful if I move it outside will it get grapes and then what do you do about the wasps. I thought it would need to be dormant to move.

Moving plants at this time of year is good because, even though they are on their way to being dormant they can still get established in the current warm soil before winter.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.
