The only thing I know is that damp is often a greater enemy than the cold.

Good to know, any info on grapes is much appreciated. Do you grow them where you currently live? I also read they don't like having wet feet which is kind of a problem for us since the soil we grow in is so high in clay. Luckily being in Colorado Springs we don't have a issue with it raining a lot or being damp usually. It's usually too dry here tbh.

So in this video we go over everything dealing with grapes. What types to choose based on your hardiness zone, soil composition, planting techniques, some initial pruning, etc. This is something new for us so we will be learning as we go and making update videos along the way. Wondering if anyone else has any experience doing grapes at higher altitudes? Would be very interested to hear your experience. Thank you.
