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.
Prune a pink bower vine annually in the early spring. Prune again in midsummer if needed to keep rampant vines from invading other parts of the garden. Disinfect the pruning shears by wiping them down with alcohol.. Remove pruning debris with a rake and discard or compost the trimmings. Fertilize with a general purpose garden fertilizer after the spring pruning and water well to soak the fertilizer into the roots.
