Organic grape cultivation, diseases and disorders

Grapes growing in a vinehouse

There are no hard and fast geographical rules for vines growing – one of the largest grapevines in the country is near Stirling in Scotland! People have cultivated vines successfully almost everywhere in the British Isles, although their chances are often better in southern counties.

Grapevines need a summer with sufficient sunlight to ripen the current season's growth and dry warm weather at flowering time (late June to July) to fruit successfully, particularly if grown outdoors. Outdoor vines may not give a crop every year, as they are at the northern end of their climatic range.
