Fertilizing Muscadines

GeorgiaPineHunter · Feb 16, 2017

Has anyone ever had success with fertilizing muscadines? I've done honeysuckle in the past with good success but had some 10-20-30 left over from doing food plots today and threw some down on muscadine root balls. Soil tests came back with a pH of 5.0 and low in nitrogen, phosphate, and potash, hence the 10-20-30. Put in a lot of lime as well but didn't on the muscadine. If anyone has experience with this I'd like to hear positives and negatives if there are any.

Here's a guide for growing them in a vineyard, I'm sure the fertilization regime would work for wild vines as well.

Yes, I've had good results fertilizing wild muscadines, persimmons, and other plants. Some lime sure wouldn't hurt them with a PH of 5, either.

I was planning on going back and liming the next time I'm out there. Just ran out after a couple hundred lbs on the fields. Thanks for the insight
