Seedless Grapes..

Postby BENIDORM » Fri Jan 21, 2011 11:06 am

I know nothing about growing grapes.... :( ..

So..can anyone suggest a good variety of preferably seedless grapes, that we could grow in a sheltered patio enviroment ?..( Inland Granada Province )
We do have a small vine growing, given to us by a local,it produces small grapes with lots of pips/seeds, quite sweet, but have no idea what variety it is..

So any help or tips would be most welcomed...

Regards,
Gordon

Are you taking the p··s Martin :wtf:

The only way you can grow seedless grapes is if you can get some buds, canes or cuttings from another grower or nursery, who has seedless grapes. Because seedless grapes have no seeds, they cannot be reproduced with seeds (obvious, isn’t it?)

I think I can help here.

A couple of years back, I got a couple of plants from a Vivero in Vineula:-take the Don Manual turn. The place is down a slope and is about 400 metres from the main road that sweeps down past the petrol station.

They were about 7 euros each and the seedless stock is grafted onto the rootstock. They had "white" and "Black". Not named varieties as such. Both mine are doing well and I had a few small bunches last year. Delicious

I bought some seedless grape plants a few years ago. I cannot remember where from. They have grown very well and produce large sweet grapes. However - they have seeds!.
I will try the viveros at Viñuela.
