An admittedly strange time of year to be asking this question, but last year I had grafted a not so vigorous seedless grape onto a large wild grape volunteer (5 inch diameter at the base) which had draped itself over several trees. The graft, which has several stems several feet long and has one bunch of grapes hanging from it, probably represents less than 1% of the topgrowth of the plant. Next winter, can the vine be pruned back so as to leave only the graft, or must this be done in stages?
