Hi,

I planted two grape vines last year, then got too busy to stake them and
well they looked so dead when they arrived from Burpees I was not sure they
would grow. I have not pruned them yet either. Should I prune them way
back or leave them long. I will get the stakes and wire in place soon, but
I think I should prune them now.

Any good websites for grapes? I have seen some but most are on a commercial
level, I just have two vines hoping to get a few grapes.

Cheers,
Jim

If you Google, "pruning grapevines", they have everything from
universities to videos.
