The deadline for planting root-root vine seedlings is in the fall and early spring. Good quality seedlings have 3-4 strong eyes and a well-developed root system. Most roots should be 30-40 cm below ground level.Thanks to this, shrubs planted quite deeply will be more resistant to frost and drought.Bare root cuttings are usually cheaper and usually vineyards are established from them.
In turn, for amateur cultivation, potted material is often offered.These cuttings are made of short sections of 1-2 eyelets, which are placed immediately in pots, where they take root. Rooting is carried out in greenhouses and foil tunnels.We can plant potted seedlings practically throughout the growing season, from early spring to late autumn.
Shrubs must be sufficiently woody for the autumn planting period. When choosing seedlings, it is not worth using beautiful green leaves, because the first autumn frost will cause them to fall anyway. Spring is a safer planting date.At the end of March, the soil is dry enough and you can start planting bushes in the ground.
We plant potted seedlings to the same depth as they grew in the container. In order not to break off the delicate buds, we handle the cuttings carefully. After planting, water the bushes abundantly.
