Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

     This isn't exactly sq fy gardening, but I figure some of you more 
experienced gardeners would know more about what I need to do.
     We'll be moving soon (hopefully) and I'd like to take some cuttings from 
our old established grape vines. They're still dormant. Here's my questions: 
Where do I take the cuttings from? Last year's wood or older? I'm assuming I 
treat the cuttings like any others....dip in root hormone, plant in loose 
soil or sand, and cover with plastic. Am I right? If not, what *should* I do?
     Also, we have some very old black raspberry canes. I'd like to take 
these with us as well. Can we simply dig up the clumps and replant at the new 
place? Should we divide the clumps (they're probably at least 20 yrs. old)? 
Or should we just leave them to keep from killing them?
