- They are vigorous growers, and with the proper pruning, they will produce fruits with ease within a few years.
- Fruit production will last for 30 years or more!
Planting grape orange seedlings
- Select a site with full sun. However, if you don’t have a spot with full sun, make sure it at least gets morning sun.
- Your soil needs to be deep, well-drained, and loose.
- You also need good air circulation.
- Grapevines will need to be trained to some sort of support to grow upward. This will also cut the risk of disease prevalence. The support needs to be in place at planting, people have used sturdy trellis or arbor for the job.
- Before planting grapevines, soak their roots in water for two or three hours.
- Water at the time of planting.
Care
- Do not fertilize in the first year unless you have a problem with soil. Fertilize lightly in the second year of growth.
