                                          Can grapes grow in Chennai Climate??? Look for yourself  Can grapes grow in Chennai Climate??? Ofcourse yes!! I bought this grape plant about 2 years back in Chennai. I started growing it only as an experiment.  I knew I have to give it sometime before expecting fruits. My initial doubts were about the climate. I planted it on a 15*15 grow bag and placed it on a sunny spot. Within few days I saw new leaves which gave me confidence. Then I built a trellis not too high or not too small. Once the leaves reached the trellis and after atleast 10 more new leaves growth I started to cut the leaves near the root, which helped to new leaves growth on the top.  Grow Bag:  Grapes need lot of space to grow. It is best to plant on floor. If you do not have space then use 24* 24 inch bag ( 2 feet). It can be placed on the ground floor and the trellis can be taken to the roof top.  Trellis :   Grapes need separate trellis. Its better to have separate trellis
