Lance Roopchand has taken on the challenge of growing grapes in Trinidad, an endeavor that has faced skepticism from locals who believe that grapes cannot thrive in the Caribbean climate. In his recent TikTok video, Roopchand showcases his successful grape cultivation, complete with 30 bunches growing on his vine. He explains that there are two different types of grape varieties—one that is sour and another that turns purple and becomes sweet—highlighting the diversity of his crop. Roopchand not only manages his vineyard but also collaborates with his neighbor, creating a sense of community involvement in agriculture. While he grapples with issues like overgrowth of vines and the management of caterpillars that threaten his plants, he remains open to feedback, asking viewers for their opinions on how to best care for his grapes.
