move grape vine
 
Hi all. I do not know what type of vine it is but it has a small single pip and it is black, anyway my question is , I took it out of the pot and planted it 2yrs ago, will it be ok to move it once its gone dormant to a sunnier area, and when would be the best time to do this? also should I thin the amount of grapes, it has quite a lot? trand

Take as much of the root-ball as you can. Transplant when it is dormant.
Pruning (each bud contains a cluster of grapes) and/or crop-thinning
will allow the "set" fruit to become more mature (higher sugar).

Mad dog Republicans to the right. Democratic spider webs to the left. True conservatives, and liberals not to be found anywhere in the phantasmagoria
of the American political landscape.

America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash.
It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the
greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks
and the portfolios of the uber-rich.
