'Concord' Grapes produce generous clusters of flavorful fruit. Concord is the most popular garden variety and has long been the backbone of the eastern grape industry. It ripens late and is ideal for jelly, juice, table use and wine. Skins slip easily from the dark-purple fruits. Almost all purple grape juice on the supermarket shelf was pressed from Concords. Grapes are not particular about soil preference and do especially well in clays and loams that have been improved with organic matter.
The vines are allowed to run as they will the first year and the posting or staking is done the second or third year when you will prune heavily, leaving only 2 or 3 buds on the strongest stem. As it grows you’ll keep only the most vigorous sprout to form the main stem. Shallow cultivation and mulching are beneficial.
Planting instructions: May be planted in any well-drained soil. Dig a hole large enough to encompass the roots without bending or circling. Set the plant in place so the crown (part of the plant where the roots meet the stem) is about 1-2" below the soil surface. Cover with soil to the original soil surface and water thoroughly. Fertilize when planting.
