A big limb broke off of an oak tree out back of the house, and now I've gout a huge grape vine on the ground.
It has some good tasting grapes in the fall, just not a lot of them.
I was wondering if I could tame this thing and get more grapes?

Never grown grapes before, but thought I could get some info here.
Maybe I could make some wine.

Wild muscadines? I think they have male/female plants. It may not be getting pollinated that well.

I think I read somewhere that muscadine produce in new shoots so if true, trimming the vines would produce more fruit. No idea when to trim though.

I have an arbor in back with a dark early producing grape(large leaves) on one side and a scuppernong on the other. I have no idea how to manage either one. have never trimmed them, soo I guess I need to look into this.

Thought this was a sexual question when I clicked on it.
