Grape Culture. 73 



My experience of 35 years has convinced me that this 

 system of having an allotted space for each vine is the right 

 one. I have growing in one house from eight to ten varieties 

 of grapes, under the same atmospheric conditions ; some are 

 supplied with water when others are not ; some are thinned 

 when others are in flower, and some are fit for use when others 

 are not. Then, as all vine borders should be made up by 

 adding additional sections every two or three years, according 

 as the roots fill and permeate the old, each vine can be thus 

 supplied according to its requirements.
