Glasgow Guy, that's what I'm trying to do with my lower grouping of grapes. Building and arbor for them to grow across to get full sun exposure.

My upper grapes are set to the basice Kneiffin (sp?) system of 4 branches to each plant. These I've had growing for 5 years now. They produce very small fruits.

The lower plants were put in just 2 years ago and last year, 2 of the planmts produced very nice clusters of large grapes. Interesting how different it can be when they're only ~100 yards away from each other!
