RE: Muscadines. Plant them this year for a lifetime of food.

in #foraging7 years ago

Muscadines and Bees were going to be our addition for the year; however, bees will have to wait. I think I can get muscadines growing in spring though. It is nice to know I won't need the 8' high wires. 5 - 6' will be much more manageable!

Thank you for another quality post.

You are very welcome. Yes, I would hate to have to deal with 8' wires. You could actually go another foot or so shorter by simply extending the length to make up for it. Keep the height to a level you can easily reach from the ground. I am a short little person with short little arms. I would go with a 4 foot height because they will still grow at least 5 feet high and possibly higher. Anything much above 5' would require a step stool or small ladder for me. Hope this helps!
