There is a section on grapes in pots in the book I've written, which is due
out in Sept. Meantime, use a mild, balanced fertilizer. Fish pellets are
excellent if you can find them, or liquid fish fertilizer. Be sure to use
actual soil, not a soil-less mix. Fertilize about three times a year. Be
sure to innoculate with mycorrhizal fungi (www.bio-organics.com)
