Kiwi Care
Select a sunny location with good drainage to plant kiwis. Water regularly and deeply for the first year, especially during dry periods. Fertilize with an all purpose fertilizer before the plant comes out of dormancy in the spring. Adding mulch annually to reduces weeds and preserves moisture. If needed, use an insecticidal soap during the growing season to control insect pests. Train kiwi vines to a sturdy fence or trellis for best results. Prune kiwis in winter to remove older vines, keeping one strong trunk and several horizontal branches.
