I discovered on my father's property literally over a hundred muscadine vines, apparently just
growing wild? As they are in the woods, in the marshy area... Some are as big around as my arm. Many of the vines are not producing any fruit, (as of last year), and many that are producing fruit are doing so in unreachable places, as many of the vines have climbed their way to the top of the
trees, I assume seeking sun.
Questions:
1.) Can I pull those vines out of the
tree tops and/ or cut them so that I can train them to a more reachable spot?
2.) Can they be transplanted? If so, how?
3.) Can I take a piece of the mature vine and place it in water and will a new little guy grow? If, so where do I make the cut on the old vine? And do I need to use rooting hormones? And if so, how long before it is ready to be planted in the ground?
4.) Do I need to purchase male vines to pollinate these vines? If so how many?
5.) How can I determine which type I have?
Here is a link to some pictures of the vines Any help would be greatly appreciated - Nikki
