Vine Growing Essentials

Provide sturdy support structures for vines to climb, such as trellises, arbors, or fences. Water vines deeply during the growing season to promote healthy root development and lush foliage. Monitor for common pests like spider mites and caterpillars, treating infestations promptly to prevent damage. Fertilize vines with a phosphorus-rich fertilizer in the spring to encourage blooming. Prune vines in late winter or early spring before new growth appears to shape and control their growth.
