UB, I wanna take a shot at some Grapes. Is there a variety you recommend in Central TX? I was looking at Spanish Black. There is a 2.5 acre vineyard growing Spanish Black about 30 minutes from me.
Do I need to wait until spring to plant?
I have a 16 x 5 x 2ft (tall) raised bed already. I was thinking about using 16 x 2.5 of it for two plants running a trellis down the 16 feet.
Could I still plant some leafy green in the fall and tomato/peppers in the spring in the remaining 16 x 2.5 fairly problem free? Or, give the grapes all of the 16 x 5?
I have a 10 x 6 as well that one starter could go in.
The soil for the bed was purchased from a garden center 2 years ago. I was going to add a ton of leaf humus/compost to the bed in early September. I have clay soil in the ground, so I was thinking the raised bed would be better.
