    Concord Grapes

    http://www.durgan.org/URL/?YLZVT 16 September 2009 Concord Grapes.
    This is the only grape vine out of four varieties that produced reasonably well this year. The clusters should be fully ripe in about two weeks. Concord is probably my favorite table grape, and if I have extra juice is made. It requires a lot of grapes to get any reasonable quantity of juice about 8 pounds per liter- but wonderful juice. This is the four year for this plant.

    Are these the seeded or unseeded variety?
    The berries look smaller than the concord's I usually eat....really plump!
    Is this vine grafted or own root?

    Seed type, wonderful flavor. Vine has its own root as far as I can tell. I was away for about six weeks during growth so it was neglected this year. This is the third year in the garden.

    For eating Concord is my favorite. Concord should be flooding the market about now. These grapes make great juice.
