Pruning Grapevines

High Wire Cordon: This is an example of a prototype of the educational materials we are developing in our program.  This video shows some of the most basic steps involved with pruning a moderately vigorous grapevine trained to the high wire cordon training system.  A key part of pruning grapevines is determining how many nodes to leave on a vine and this is not covered in this short video.  Other materials going into more depth about pruning are currently being developed.
