Growing Fruit in Greenhouses

9:09 am Home

There are several varieties of grapes that can be grown in a greenhouse environment including Black Hamburgh and Buckland Sweetwater. They are ideal grapes for growing in cooler conditions. Gardeners need to pay particular attention to giving the vines open, free-draining soil and to prevent waterlogged soils. They will need to support young plants, build a greenhouse as they are first becoming established. Side-shoots that are produced in the summer will need to be pruned in the following winter by cutting them back to their last bud (spur pruning). A good quality fertilizer and sufficient water that reaches to all of the roots are essential for good quality grapes.
