Does anyone have experience with these grapes? I planted one spring 2024 and it grew well.

Our neighbors lost several huge pecan branches during the last hurricane. Fell directly on our grape trellis. I thought we lost it. We pruned and babied what survived.

This spring it has flourished. We have 5 clusters. Seems like the size has stalled. I don’t know whether to harvest, fertilize, or wait and keep watering.

This picture is from early May. Also covered with netting now so that mockingbirds don’t win.

Just taste one every once in a while and pick when they get sweet!

Growing some seedless muscadines now & would say wait & water. Unless your hand is massive those grapes are tiny wee babies not at all worth picking.

We picked the grapes yesterday. Not as big as a supermarket grape but just as juicy and sweet.

If we can avoid hurricanes and 10 inches of snow, we are optimistic about next year’s harvest.
