Two questions I have 2 vines I planted this spring I would like to move them to a new location Can I do it now ? can you recommend a good sprayer the small hardware store ones just don't cut it.

I would not move the vines until they are dormant. Perhaps better to wait until spring before they emerge from dormancy. You'll need to cut them back to just a few buds and take as much root as possible.

I have 98 vines and use a 2 gallon hand sprayer from Lowe's. If you have 2 vines you'll need to explain why the cheap hardware store ones don't work, that's all I've used.
 
I have a 25g tank/electric pump sprayer that I set in the back of my side by side that I use with great success but that way overkill for just a few vines.
 
I have 28 vines and planning to get 28 more in the spring I also have 15 fruit trees.
 
I need more pressure to reach the tops of the trees.I just had 2 vines in with my blackberrys until I got a new row set up. Sorry I did not give you enough information.

Yes, I have fruit trees too and the hand sprayer won't do. My father had this problem and we built a tractor-mounted sprayer from scratch. It wasn't so much the pressure that solved the issue but an extra long wand, I think it was 4-5 feet. I'm hoping one of these years he feels he's done with it and I can buy it off him. :)
