Grapes— Seven Selected Sorts 
Grapes are grown in all parts of the world, north and south, on high land 
and on low; they seem to thrive nearly as well in one place as in another. The 
kind of soil makes little difference, though it is probable that a heavy clay is 
better than a sandy soil. Vines thrive among rocks, on steep hillsides, and on 
rich bottom lands. Drainage is essential, as with all fruits, and in low pockets 
of land frost is likely to catch blossoms. 
The newly planted vines should be mulched heavily with straw and manure, 
for 2 feet about the vine. They require lots of nitrogen, which the mulch will 
supply while it is saving moisture. Add whatever commercial fertilizer the 
vines may lack, as indicated in the chapter on feeding plants. For the first 
sccisoii tnc canes may be tied to stakes or allowed to run on the ground. After 
that they should be trained on trellises to make easy the spraying, cultivating, 
and picking. For home trellises, use the form you like or can get best. 
1 to 4 vines are sold at the each rate; 5 to 49 vines are sold at the 10 rate; 50 to 299 
vines are sold at the 100 rate; 300 vines or more are sold at,the 1,000 rate.
