Any tips on grape cuttings?

No. San Diego Co., CA(Zone 10b)

We have a Vitis Californica that needs some light trimming to help it go in the right direction (over our ramada, not under the shade cloth). I would like to try rooting the cuttings, but I'm terrible at getting the things to survive. Any tips specific to grapevines or should I just try the routine cutting procedure?

Thanks.

Addendum: The PF info says hardwood cuttings. Not familiar with those at all.

My uncle always said that with grape vines, the hard part was getting them NOT to root. I honestly don't have any experience, but I think they are fairly easy.

Thanks 'other.' LOL!

I have one soft cutting in water that is rooting, so perhaps that's one option. I'll do some more 'net searching.
