But even in the local grape season, gourmets often look for local goods for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>If you no longer want to use grapes from Italy, Greece, Spain, or Turkey, you can also grow this juicy delicacy in your own garden.

Planting in spring is common. As a heat-loving plant, the vine thanks a sunny place. Pure south or west sides or locations facing south-east or south-west are recommended for cultivation. In addition, it makes sense to plant the vines close to a building wall. This radiates the heat stored during the day at night and thus protects the vines from damage caused by the cold.<\/p>\n<p>Before planting, it should be ensured that the site is not endangered by backwater. Clay or loam floors are ideal. But light sandy soils are also suitable, provided that a good humus supply is guaranteed. Good soil loosening is also crucial. If necessary, the soil should be loosened before planting.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\" \/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/180250c4fc3399ecf5723b40d7cc590b.jpg\" alt=\"Grapevine Planting: Video Instructions &amp; Tips for Variety Selection\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_correct_procedure_for_planting_grapevines\"><\/span>The correct procedure for planting grapevines<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are a few things to consider so that you can soon be able harvest grapes from your own grapevine yourself. Below we explain how to go about planting grapevines.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"This_is_what_you_need_to_plant_grapevines\"><\/span>This is what you need to plant grapevines<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t take much to plant a grapevine. The following materials are required for planting:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>grapevine<\/li>\n<li>A spade<\/li>\n<li>A pair of secateurs<\/li>\n<li>Plant substrate<\/li>\n<li>A coconut mat<\/li>\n<li>A piece of string<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\" \/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ffd37dc67fcdcc1782c188ef5589c7c4.jpg\" alt=\"Grapevine Planting: Video Instructions &amp; Tips for Variety Selection\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dig_a_planting_hole_for_grapevines\"><\/span>Dig a planting hole for grapevines<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As soon as a suitable location has been found, a 30 cm wide and 40 cm deep pit is to be dug into which the vine is to be inserted later. The planting hole should be about twice as deep and wide as the root ball. The bottom of the planting hole is now improved with a little fresh substrate &#8211; we recommend using special soil for berry plants. In addition, some organic soil activators can be added so that the grapevine gets a perfect start in the new home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You might so like<\/strong>: <a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/how-to-planting-aronia-berries-care-and-harvesting-healthy-chokeberry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How To Planting Aronia Berries: Care And Harvesting Healthy Chokeberry<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prepare_the_vine_for_planting\"><\/span>Prepare the vine for planting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>However, before the plant can finally move in, it must be prepared accordingly. To counteract the spiral growth of the roots, which is common for plants from the pot, the root ball is slightly cut all around and loosened the soil with your hands. The small injuries also stimulate root growth. So that the vine grows quickly, it is advisable to saturate the root ball with water before planting. To do this, the plant is placed in a container filled with water until the root ball has soaked up.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Plant_grapevine\"><\/span>Plant grapevine<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Now the grapevine can be placed in the planting hole and this can be filled with substrate. Certain caution is required here: the processing point itself must not be buried. This must look out over the pit and is only lightly piled up with earth. Cavities around the root ball are closed by lightly stepping on it.<\/p>\n<p>If the grapevine is secure and firm, the individual shoots of a climbing aid can be tied. A garden fence, for example, is also suitable for this. Then the plant is well watered. To keep weeds away, a coconut mat can be placed around the trunk.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\" \/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1dbcf4e5aa8f2795131786344aa968da.jpg\" alt=\"Grapevine Planting: Video Instructions &amp; Tips for Variety Selection\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Grape_varieties_hardy_and_fungus-resistant\"><\/span><strong>Grape varieties: hardy and fungus-resistant<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Resistance to fungi is particularly decisive for a successful harvest in the garden. Powdery mildew (Oidium) and downy mildew (Peronospora) are the arch enemies of every vine. Therefore, when choosing the grape variety, it is important to ensure that it is very resistant to fungi. The varieties Arkadia Rozowa, Frumoasa alba, Straschinksi, Suzi, Vanessa, and Venus have proven to be particularly resistant. A. Rozowa, a red Russian table grape, also impresses with its large and early-ripe grapes, which can be harvested from the beginning of September. But the Vanessa (rose-colored) and Venus (blue grape) varieties also give grapes ripe early and also boast that they are seedless. A feature that is often desired.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\" \/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/e67d01863b6429040ce8a0422c5cbe40.jpg\" alt=\"Grapevine Planting: Video Instructions &amp; Tips for Variety Selection\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you like it crisp, you will get your money&#8217;s worth with the Muscat Bleu variety. The Centennial seedless variety (green-yellow color) from the USA, as the name suggests, also does not contain any seeds. Its fine nutmeg aroma makes it very interesting in terms of taste and as a frost-tolerant variety, it is suitable for cultivation in non-typical wine-growing regions. The Russian variety Michurinski (blue grape), which is frost-resistant even down to -35 \u00b0 C, is particularly insensitive to the cold. A specialty that even her Russian counterpart, the Rote Victoria and the Ukrainian varieties Wodograi, cannot quite keep up with.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You might so like<\/strong>: <a class=\"yoast-link-suggestion__value\" href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/blueberry-blueberry-soil-what-should-be-considered\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Blueberry Soil: What Should Be Considered?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The range of aromatic and robust varieties for cultivation in our latitudes has continued to grow in recent years.

According to Schmidt from Obernbreit, February-March is the best time to cut the vines. Schmidt explains how to cut with a rule of thumb: \u201cFruitwood is annual wood. One or two rods from last year&#8217;s wood must be left standing. The flowers develop from these eyes \u201d. If the fungus appears despite proper pruning, the expert recommends a copper preparation that must be used before and after flowering.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\" \/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/04acc3d1fb17f025a2ae60f5333dc757.jpg\" alt=\"Grapevine Planting: Video Instructions &amp; Tips for Variety Selection\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Animal pests such as smallpox mites, on the other hand, are comparatively harmless, and disposing of the infected leaves is sufficient. In order not to have to share the grapes with wasps and birds, an organza bag is helpful. The bag is put over the grape and protects it from unpleasant feeding.
