The problem with this and other videos is they should but do not start out with defining “Bud” “Cane” “Shoot” “renewal spur” …this is last years’ growth right? Well tell us how we know…rather than ask us. Arrrg. “Too thick” Why? What do you mean? What is wrong with too thick? No it doesn’t make any sense..he asks at 4:10 “If that makes sense” NO! And meanwhile fast forward footage is useless. There is no starting point about what his goal is to start with. Keeps asking if that makes sense..no dude it doesn’t.

Jack Tripper is a gardener!

Can last years fruiting cane be used to create new spurs? If not, how far should we cut last years fruited cane?

Soooo awesome!! 😊

Awesome video! Do you have all of your raised bed on that one sprinkler head that you removed?

great explanations verbally and visually of the step by step which I haven't been able to find elsewhere. thank you.

Redwood?? I'm so jealous that y'all are able to get Redwood from the bigbox stores out west! Just a little east in Texas, NOPE! 😭

I understood spur pruning but this is the first video that actually explains cane pruning really well.

Do you have instructions on making your trellis at the end of the video the one that you have on the structure the end of the video

Thank you. I have a gnarly old Himrod that hasn't ever really been pruned. I have hacked away at it but I didn't know what I was doing. It was helpful to see a pruning on the variety that I have.

Good video. I actually always prefer planting with root flare even good inch higher than surrounding ground and can mound up dirt a little

Inspiring!

Also, a pruning lesson over on your arbor would be nice to see :)

At 12:45 you seem to be using the terms "cordon" and "canes", interchangeably. Im confusion

Can almond tree grow in maryland ? we have snow

Pollinizer 1:30

Thank you

Thank you!!!

Very beautiful video n informative❤

We usually have a 100% coddling moth rate in our apples. Can you tell me the ideal time to place bags over apples to protect them from the worms. As soon as the blooms drop or is it better to wait until the apples start to form. We are using the similar organza mesh fruit protection bags you used which allow full sunlight through. But we want to time this perfectly so the blooms are pollinated and spent and not enough time for moths to have laid eggs. Can you provide some guidance to me on this. thanks

Yes an update would be great it looks fantastic

Would love to see an update!

Don’t think I could put as much faith into passerby’s

Thank you for this. The fruit trees at the nursery that are already espaliered are double the price of regular trees. My question: how did you set up the initial tiered wires? Maybe you already have a video of that - I’ll take a look since this is the first of your vids I’ve come across.

Good Job!🤓😎🤠

amazing!!!!

Nice.

Reliance grapes are spur pruned? I just got Reliance grapes.

I have a peach tree that has Four trunks growing away from each other a load of fruit might break them. I want to tie adjacent branches so they grow together to weave the four into a basket.

Well done! Thank you for the info. Where do you recommend buying apple whips from? What kind of apple did you choose?

How do you like the superduke?

Hey here to connect from the Utah backyard homesteading Facebook group! Can’t wait to connect with more Utah people who also homestead !

I'm doing mine on 16 ft cattle fences sideways.. I planted my apple trees on the end to grow to the other end and my pear tree in the center to grow both ways.. should I move my apple trees to the center of the fence like my pear tree this year?? I know they will go into plant shock.. but I'm thinking they will do better.. yes or no

I have a white grape that starts putting on good-looking clusters, but when they get to pea size or a little bigger, they look like they are turning into raisens and dry up and fall off. Ant thoughts on why this is happening?

Can the prunings be used to start new plants?

Awesome!

Tip: wrap the bottom entire to a few inches above ground level with window seal tape. Also, 1/2 shovel of cement so the bottom is encased. Longer life for the system.

I shall root as many branches of my fruit trees to transfer to the fences. After saving this video for a year I watched it again to absorb thoroughly each step of your vivid demonstrations

Looks like you haven't been active on youtube in a while, but on the off change you see this comment, can you please tell me how wide of a space you need for a grape trellis? I am really struggling with knowing where to put grapes in my foodscape. Thanks for being such an inspiration! Your foodscape is beautiful.

Amazing

take off all shoots before the graft always

Can you start new grape vines with the shoots you’re pruning?

Which direction is your arbor layout?

At what size should the fruit be when you begin to bag?

I wonder how long these posts will lasts in the ground? I have a doubt that they would rotten over time. Am I right? Whta if they rotten in10 years and won't hold anymore?

Learn the difference between level and plumb!

Amazon doesn't have the Espalar kits in stock. Do you know of any other sources?

What is your growing zone? Utah is warmer than Colorado

Agreed with everything you said!

This is so cool--using grapevine to shade the greenhouse! Thank you for sharing.
