Man, watching your video is almost like going into a nice trance while at the same learning about grape trellis. Awesome thanks, I learned a lot 😀

[@bohochick100]

I'm going to use this excellent video as an English lesson for a grape grower. Thank you!

[@paultonacci1026]

Enjoyable and informative! I'll probably be watching this before setting up my own vineyard next year

[@DirtyVineyard]

Glad it was helpful and thanks for visiting Paul! Cheers!

[@ranchoparco]

About to start a small "vineyard" love your videos... the humor is even better. Thans for posting. Glad I found you

[@vilicus77]

Great channel--I'm hooked. I'm just at the planning stage and getting ready to do soil samples. Can't wait to see more of your videos.

[@DirtyVineyard]

Thanks Caliban, we appreciate that a lot! Cheers!

[@PureBlood42]

Love the shades, bro! This is the best video I've seen on grapes. "Do I still look good? I do, don't I?" Narcissist. Lol 😂

[@PureBlood42]

@@horseegurl - It's quite entertaining, indeed. I may have to surrender my 55 yr old crown 👑.

[@wildlife3933]

You have my attention...I'm ready to enjoy the journey

[@paulbraga4460]

would you make a video on how you fertilize your grapes...blessings

[@kevinmccarthy6862]

I am a new subscriber and owner of a 300 plus acre of steep and rolling hills in Southern Oregon. I'm planning on 5 varieties of 🍇 wine 🍷 grapes 🍇. Lover your channel and your advice as well as sharing your many struggles including your difficulty to sell your great wine. Best of luck always.

Great video, dont change a thing!

[@kmw4359]

Love the aerial view... and it looks like you have an awesome veg garden, too!

[@ulfgar_hallgrimsson]

Great video. Thanks very much.

[@gnome2024]

Awesome video thanks. My soil is more of a clay down here in SoCal so Im thinking about buying an auger instead of digging holes by hand. I really do appreciate all of the tips!

[@DirtyVineyard]

I actually wished I had an auger when we started years ago. Thanks for the visit Mr. A., cheers!

[@reany_j]

great content. keep posting more

There is a tool to remove metal posts that makes it easy. The soil in a vineyard should be prepped the fall before planting and before putting in the trellis. A little bit of prep is worth years of struggle. I learned that from old vineyard people. You want that ground not compacted so young roots grow outward quickly. You also want any amendments to spend the winter being utilized by the soil biome so they are ready for the plants. Bird houses around a vineyard... you are just asking for it. If a home orchardist doesn't have room for dead man cables, simply put more wooden posts in and then connect to tops with 2x4s. This method is also better if you decide to go with T posts, which I do. I can get 4 times the grape production out of T post trellises. I like the cable connector you demonstrated. Interesting channel.

[@ZZZELCH]

Excellent video

[@a2n_channel491]

Amazing👍👍👍

[@robertyoung6320]

Nice..um just connected .. I know what that is .. thanks for the video

[@TheBrudi2007]

Nice video! Windy, mountains, and was that Hood in the background? Sounds like the gorge!

[@عواضالغامدي-ث6غ]

Thanks ❤

[@atx.videos]

Wow! That only took seven minutes!! So it should only take me just over an hour to make ten trellises. Cool... 😉🍇🍇🍇

[@DirtyVineyard]

You can do it! Cheers!

[@gregory3123]

Good info dirty

[@doransignal]

Instead of wire can you use stainless cable?

[@MasparyGP]

Good..

[@Catch22iscrazy]

Your density seems to be extremely low? Any insight on that? Similarly what did you do prior to planting? Any soil analysis? How did you choose your rootstocks and scions?

[@DirtyVineyard]

You are correct. We had to be realistic about what we could accomplish, just me and my wife. Harvest would be impractical if we had more density, we do it ourselves. We chose the Alvarihno and Arinto as we like the wines, but also because we are the same longitude as Portugal with similar soil and climate.

[@samiyaabdi4444]

What kind of wires are you using ?

[@yaseenali23]

I need this kind of tree in my home

[@XxBloggs]

I would have though and end h frame support would have been necessary to stop the grapes pulling the posts inwards.

[@jfulton]

Do you need a deadman? Can the weight of the vines pull your post down? I have a backyard setup with a single row that has a total of 7 vines. I didn’t put a deadman on my posts. Just planted my vines this year and most just reached the first wire with a few already reaching the second wire.

[@DirtyVineyard]

You don't always need one unless its commercial, cheers Jesse!

[@jfulton]

Good to know. Thanks.

[@mashwehla5507]

hello, which state are you in, can I try this in Las Vegas Nevada Thanks

[@MrEunderwood]

What size are your posts?

[@gregory3123]

Tape measure on 5 ft apart

[@gregory3123]

Deadman deep

[@genegrindle8859]

16 gauge is smaller than 14 gauge. So why go 16 if bigger? Nice work though. Looks good

[@gregory3123]

Deadman plus 14 Guage to 16 for large vinyard

[@charleswoodward7501]

Anyone else getting some Bob Ross vibes, lol?

[@gregory3123]

Chk water collection laws in ur state

[@gregory3123]

Grill by post

[@PureBlood42]

You said measure once and cut twice, right? 😂

[@thomasharp3246]

Auger would've made you job a lot easier. Could drill 30 holes in 5 minutes.

[@johnburgoyne9483]

What are you smoking? Could drill 30 holes in 5 minutes.

[@gregory3123]

Tightnr

[@Mzoomtwo]

plant grapes and put fence around so wiled animals don’t get in

[@fishmut]

Good video however listening to you explain your vineyard with a strumming guitar is not nice , better to get rid of back ground music when your speaking to us, other than that it was ok.
