    I am in zone 5 and haven’t grown muscadines yet. I am growing other type of grapes and they should be the same. as the vine starts to lay over train them on a trellis with a minimum of 20 feet between posts. You should have at least 2 plants per trellis, I know when planting and training we are doing in the summer. We will cut them back in February to not be overgrown in the spring. As far as specific times I should refer you to my great friend at Perma Pastures Farm Billy Bond. He is closer to your zone and would know more about the times and propagation. I will follow your inquiry to make sure you question is answered sufficiently.
