Grapevine Bleeding Sap After Late Pruning: No Sealant Works

Cause

Pruning after Christmas (when sap rises) causes unstoppable bleeding. Sealants (Arbex, torch) fail on active flow.

Outlook

Bleeding slows as leaves expand and transpire.
Vine may weaken but rarely dies from bleeding alone.
Future: Prune grapevines before Christmas during full dormancy.

No effective way to stop current bleeding; focus on vine health.
