The time to prune grapevines is from January through the first of March, when the grapes are dormant. There are two types of grape pruningâcane pruning and spur pruning. Mature plants should be pruned yearly to remove all growth except new one-year-old fruiting canes and renewal spurs. Grapes are produced from buds that will grow into shoots on one-year old canes.
Planting Grapes. Plant grapes in early spring, when you'll find bare-root varieties available. As you plant, cut the existing root back to 6 inches; this will encourage feeder roots to grow near the trunk. The root system of a grapevine can grow deep, so well-cultivated soil is best.
