• As a rule, when planting a seedling, 5 kidneys were left on it, of which only the 2 strongest are left for the next year. Of these, 2 branches will be formed.
• These grape shoots originate from the base of the vine under the ground. They are called "sleeves".
• The next year, you need to grow 4 of these "sleeves". Such pruning is especially good in the northern regions, since it allows to form a more powerful shrub.
• On the new branches, 5 kidneys are left, and the rest is boldly cut off. It is better if this work is done in autumn, when the plant is preparing for rest, and not in spring, during sap flow.

It is important to know: when the cut is made in the autumn, and the shelter of the grapes is made easier for the winter.
