I recived grape cliping ! did i plant them right?

I cut 1/16 of an inch off bottom so i could see green on vine and dip in rooting hormone and planted buds up , is this right ? in potting soil , and keep moist ! will they do just like raspberrys %26amp; boysenberrys vine as i done this many times with them and can I plant them on the same trillis or should I make a new one

You did good. An additional thing to do is cut 3 or 4, verticle lines through the bark in the bottom 1" to open more area where the cells that will become roots are more exposed to the hormone. High humidity around the cutting increases the probabillity of the cuttings not drying too much. Commercial systems use misting to insure this.

On the same trillis is a matter of your new plants having enouogh space without competing with its neighbors for light and root room. Space is relative to what a mature plant needs and the ease of harvesting.
