- Extraction of the old vineyard with elimination of all residues of the previous crop.
- Evaluation of nutritional status through chemical-physical analysis, to be able to make a correct fertilization of the bottom and the choice of rootstock.
- Soil processing in the correct time by carrying out specific operations with temperate soil.
- Withdrawal of the cuttings a few days before the plant to allow the roots to be immersed in water for 12-24 hours before the implant. This is to encourage a gradual acclimatization and rehydration after storage in a refrigerator (2 ° C).
If it is necessary to keep the boxes, it is recommended to keep them in rooms at a controlled temperature avoiding leaving open boxes.
