Growing in Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺

I was just wondering if anyone could share what they think the best method is for washing and storing grocery store purchased grapes? I eat a lot of grapes and I’ve tried several different methods with varying degrees of success. Currently I do a cold water rinse and then soak them for 5-10 minutes in a bowl of water with a little bit of apple cider vinegar added and then rinse them again in cold water. I’ve tried using baking soda and/or salt as well but that usually doesn’t turn out well especially for more delicate varieties like the holiday red grapes that are available now where I live. Any tips? Thanks so much

Have been gardening for several years and would like to start grapes for wine. I'm not really set on any specific type and generally open to any options that would work in my environment.

My area is very specific on the growing conditions so it seems difficult to find something that fits all requirements. I'm at 6300' elevation, zone 6b, high desert, short growing season (120 days), summers can be highs in upper 90s F for a few weeks. Would like to see if there are any options that are short season, drought and heat tolerant .

Has anyone here had success in similar conditions or know of a website/company that you recommend working with to find best options?

Looking for Reliance and Interlaken grapes.

Also feel free to share your trellis set up.

We have these up in Canada. Wondering if we can co firm these are Concord grapes or what type they may be if not.

New to growing. Was told I could do a small garden in the back of my apartment.

Looking for grapes of any variety. I will pay for shipping.

I wanted to share the size of this grape with people who might appreciate it

Im in zone 8a. With the little research I have done I've settled on flame seedless grapes.

What would you recommend?

I'm guessing this has been asked before, but I saw a picture online of Japanese pink Koshu grapes... I'm wondering if they really are that pink or if pictures are photo shopped. And does anyone in the US grow them or have plants for sale?

Hello, I am attempting to grow merlot grapes. I planted them this April 2024. I am planning on building a trellis system before winter to have it ready for next spring. Any advice on the best training systems for wine grapes in CO. In specifically in Aurora. I was reading the "Colorado Grape Growers Guide" that was published by CSU and they recommend a double trunk bilateral cordon training system, but didn't really get into specifics.

I need to know what the height of the lower wire should be and how far up each additional wire should be on the trellis.

Also,if anyone has any helpful advice on anything else, I'll take it!

Thank you 😊

I just received grape cuttings I shipped two weeks ago. I’ve cut the tip to make it fresh and dipped them in water for 24 hours. What would you advise as the next step to ensure successful propagation?

MORE precisely, how do you take care of grapes in general. When are they usually harvested. Are there any secrets in growing it. Share all info you know. Thanks

It's an average five foot wire fence. Plan on getting concord grapes (I think). I'm in zone 8a.
