What am I doing wrong? I can’t get the old vine to leaf out and fruit. Each plant keeps sending up new shoots at the ground.
It is necessary to prune the old wood to force the vines to branch and keep them healthy.
Here are instructions for pruning and caring for your vines.

Hi. Can you please help? I have had 3 grapevines for the past 3 years. Last year I started to get some grapes on; I know it was very hot last year, but my grapes all dried up and that was all I got. I fed them every other day and put water on them about every 3 days. This year they look ok, but what am I doing wrong? I would like to see grapes this year if possible. Can you help? thanks for your time. kenneth wright
It can be quite difficult to diagnose without seeing pictures of the damage in question. My best guess given your description will be a fungal disease.

This is the first year I've seen this growth. The vine was transplanted about 5 year ago and has been growing and producing grapes every year. There seems to be an abundance of clusters this year, too, but the growths are concerning. I've removed and discarded all leaves and tender vines that appeared affected. What is it and how do I treat the vine (preferably organically) to prevent a recurrance? Thank you for your advice.
This is blister mite damage. There is no real cause for concern, as they don't do much damage to your plants. They just look bad. There are a few ways to get rid of them, though they will usually resolve on their own.

our goats chewed the bark off the bottom of the grapevine. Can I save the grapevine? thank you
It really depends on the extent of the bark damage. If they are older vines and the goats pulled off some exfoliating outer bark, then there will probably be no negative effects. But if they stripped and chewed into the growing layer, especially on young plants, the conductive tissue could be damaged or exposed to sunburn and fungal infection, and uptake of water and nutrients compromised. The more of the circumference affected, the more damage and negative effects can be expected.
If you are not sure how deep or extensive the damage is, then it's wait and see. Wilting of foliage would be a first sign of extensive damage, followed by dieback of sections or the entire plant.
Keep the goats away from doing more damage of course. Water and fertilize to ensure best conditions for recovery.
I sprayed my grape vine with garden fungicide but they are still going bad. This has been happening for a few years now.
This looks like Grape Black Rot. This can be quite difficult to control. This will have to be controlled by a fungicide that is specifically made for this application.

This year there were 2 bunches that started then they stopped growing and all dropped off,although the vine is healthy and growing well.I have fed it once a fortnight with blood.
There are quite a few reasons why this can happen. This article will go over the most common reasons, so that you can begin to narrow down the possibilities: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/grapes/how-to-get-grapes-on-vines.htm
After pruning my grapes the new leaves are starting to get covered with, what I call, mildew. Please advise me what to do, thanks, Luc.
This sounds like a Powdery Mildew issue.
