[@taiduong3575]

Where you located? I'm in NJ my Muscadine is later than your. I have posted on reel. Yesterday

Wow. You are the 1st I know growing it further north. Are you near the ocean?

[@taiduong3575]

@@ken2ny4 I'm closer to Philadelphia. It is about 1 hour to the shore.

clusters do not ripen uniformly....i also prefer my grapes to remain on vine longer than most people they get sweeter

[@deepwaters2334]

Is it just me, or do muscadines seem to grow very slowly? Regular grape vines are growing fast, but not the muscadines.

[@ken2ny4]

It depends. Muscadines grow the same or faster than jupiter and compassions. It’s slower than concord and everest

[@deepwaters2334]

@@ken2ny4 Thanks for the reply. It does seem slower than the concord, ruby red, and other common varieties of grapes. I got some small, dormant muscadines vines from a nursery online, but they still have not budded leaves after many weeks. Any advice on salvaging them? I cut the old wood back, and it was dead inside, but the nursery said the roots may still be alive.

@@deepwaters2334 This has happened to me many times. They always grow back from the roots. The only time they completely died on me was when I left them in containers over winter.

@@ken2ny4 Thanks for the advice; I transferred them to another pot to put them in the shade; I'll keep an eye on them.
