4. Plastic trimming

The temperature in winter is low, so potted plants should be moved indoors in time, but be careful not to place them in a heated room. The temperature should be between 0-5 degrees. If the temperature is too high, the buds will germinate in advance, which is detrimental to later growth. Although growth will stop in winter, watering must be done regularly, once a week, and no water should be lost. At this time, an additional base fertilizer should be applied together with changing the pot to ensure that the soil is fertile. In addition, they must be pruned and reshaped to save nutrients as much as possible, which will help them survive the winter.

1. Control the temperature

Grapevines managed in pots should be moved indoors after cooling down in winter, and attention should be paid to temperature control. The indoor temperature should not be too high, just maintain it between 0 degrees and 5 degrees. Do not place it in a heated room. If the temperature is around 10 degrees, the buds will germinate in advance, which will be detrimental to later growth, flowering, and fruiting.

2. Water in time

Although it stops growing in the winter, it still needs regular watering. Because if the pot soil is not watered for a long time, the pot soil will be dry and the roots will not be able to absorb water. This will easily cause damage and the bud eyes will dry up, which is detrimental to next year's germination. Watering does not need to be too frequent, just water once a week and keep the soil slightly moist.

3. Apply additional base fertilizer

After winter, the pot should be changed once, and fertilization should be combined at this time. Fermented organic fertilizer is sufficient. The amount does not need to be too much. Be careful not to place it directly near the roots, otherwise it will burn the roots. After this treatment, the soil will be loose and the nutrients will be sufficient, so that the plants can grow better next year.

4. Plastic pruning

Enter Prune in time after winter, including thin branches, diseased branches, leggy branches, interspersed branches and branches after fruiting. The specific method will be determined according to the variety and growth of the grapevine. At this time, it should be pruned as much as possible. Save nutrients, this treatment will be beneficial to winter and next year's growth. If it is not pruned, a lot of nutrients will be consumed throughout the winter, which will affect the germination, flowering and fruiting of the next year.
