I hope someone can help me get started. We have moved into a house with a conservatory along the side - a grape vine, variety unknown is situated againt a fence in shade. It grows up the fence and crosses above the pathway between conservatory and fence anbd grows along the length of the conservatory, turns the corner to continue growing along the end of the conservatory towards the house wall. It is literally dripping with grapes of about 1cm diameter, 80% of which are now turning red and birds are starting to hop, into the growth and pick out their choice. I thought that wine grapes were supposed to be ready for picking in October onwards. The grapes are small but taste quite sweet. Does this mean I have a desert grape vine producing too many eating grapes or has my wine vine got ahead of itself? Help please.
