Why should you graft Loquat Trees? The main reasons to graft a fruit tree and the best techniques to do it, with several examples and results over 4 years. These videos require lots of time and effort to make. Show me your appreciation by Liking the video and Leaving a Comment. I will try to answer as many questions as I can. Share the video and, if you haven’t already, consider subscribing the channel to help me make more videos. Thanks for watching.
I started watching your videos during covid time and within a year time I became a successful grafter. So far I have grafted apple, pear, quince, apricot, plum, pomegranate, mulberry, fig, lemon, grape fruit, assyrian plum trees.. That's all thanks to you sir 🙏 may u live long healthy happy and prosper 😊
Another excellent video - thank you. I used the modified cleft graft on a few small scions I had from a newly discovered apple variety last year. 100% success, so there are now 8 of these trees in existence, not just the single old tree we found. Your videos are a great reminder to someone who doesn't graft regularly 👍
Very thorough video. I appreciate the before and after shots of what the grafts will look like after a couple years. I've never eaten a loquat before, but I hope to one day. Love new fruits. Thanks for sharing!
I do enjoy watching your videos. Your gentle ways of teaching and showing up close in what you are doing. I know it takes time to do it, since you show the results of your grafts. You make it look so easy. Somehow I have trouble holding the grafts together when wrapping them.
Glad you like my videos! That's one of the reasons I like whip and tongue. The scion and rootstock keep easily in place while we are wrapping them. With other techniques is usually best to start from the top and work your way down. Thanks for the nice comment.
@@JSacadura okay thank you for your advice. I have another thought; have you ever wondered how that little bud graft can change what kind of fruit the tree produces? It is amazing to me! How can that work?
All growth from the bud has the genetics of the tree where the chip comes from. So there is no mystery why all the fruits that it produces are different from the original tree.
@@JSacadura I hadn’t thought of just that little bud being responsible for the production of the fruit. We were created from something much smaller than that bud. So I guess it shouldn’t have been a mystery. This has caused me to realize where scripture says the LORD grafted wild branches into a good tree, doesn’t change the fruit of that branch. We just get to enjoy the benefits of being part of a good tree. Romans 11 is where grafting is talked about. Thank you again for helping me understand.
Nice to see you are back Sacadura, I grafted 12 scions Baya M. on Topaz, Ecollete, Goriška sevka...for the first time 😊 the best looking is hybrid between holland and tongue on Goriška ❤, the later technic is grave danger to have your hand in one piece 😅 tools are new and used only for grafting: Okatsune 103, Felco8, felco grafting knife, cant wait spring to arrive, we will graft new cherrys, pears, apple trees planted this year - on older stock ❤
That's wonderful! Good luck with your grafts. Always be safe by anchoring firmly your hands. Don't let the grafting knife travel without control, specially when doing that cut.
Pruning is usually done after the harvest (most cultivars can be picked in April-May). In some cases, with very big trees, it's best to prune in 2 different seasons to allow for an adaptation period. Grafting can be done in the spring for young seedlings or early summer, when grafting established trees.
Thank you for your slowing detailed explanation about process of grafting of Eriobotrya japonica in this and previous videos! I appreciate your efforts to make it. Someday I would graft this exotic tree. I hope our next winters, at least for 5 years might be mild to allow my seedling tree to grow. Grafting material here is absent. We haven't such tree in a culture at all due to their tenderness in rare winters with freezings followed by cracks at bark layer after warm days come back. Such winters were almost every second in a past. But I hope to graft my seedling on quince to spread its material on other locations here due to climate change.
It's a wonderful fruit and a very good looking tree. It's unfortunate that is a bit too delicate for cold winter areas. Best of luck with your seedling. Quince is the go-to rootstock over here. Smaller trees, quick production, amazing resistance in less than ideal soils. I have some planted in clay soil, rock hard in the summer and drenched for weeks in the winter, and they still survive and keep growing. Thanks for the comment.
Quince is a good rootstock for loquat. I have several grafted on quince and they are excellent in low quality soils, quick to produce fruits and keep the tree much smaller. The only negative is that they reduce the live span to around 15-20 years instead of the 30-40 years a loquat tree usually lives. Good luck with your grafts.
Great advice and I always appreciate the documentation of the graft healing and the grafting methods. I successfully grafted loquat to quince with the chip and T-budding techniques you showed in other videos, as well as to rowan (mountain ash, Sorbus aucuparia) by bark graft. Loquat seems to be a very forgiving and productive species, now all that's left is to wait until climate change makes cultivation in my climate reliably possible. For now, it is still a bit too cold in northern Germany. As always I liked your video very much and appreciate all the advice, greetings from Germany.
Thanks for the nice comment! Glad my videos helped your grafting efforts. Good job! It's a shame that loquat doesn't resist the winters in Germany. It's one of my favorite fruits. As you say, something to look forward, regarding global warming (just kidding 😊 - most of my other fruit trees would stop producing for lack of cold hours).
I always learn something new from your videos. I started using that rubber tape this year and I got a very high percentage of grafts to take, I used parafilm only in the past with great success but the rubber really holds the grafts tightly and I also like that it also degrades in the sun so it will fall off eventually if I forget one.
Hi, Jared. Since I discovered the rubber tape I don't use anything else. I used natural raffia on whip and tongue a lot, since I believe the tightness helped with graft success with that technique. But the rubber tape provides identical strength and its much more user friendly. It also avoids the need to use pruning paste in smaller diameter bark grafts.
Inspiring and amazing grafting video as usual, thank you ! Would you please share the loquat variety of the fruits you cut at the end of the video ? They seems to be just perfect, quite big, super color, many juice
The one I am cutting in the video is Algerie aka Argelino. To me it's one of the best, since it has a very thick pulp, medium pits and almost doesn't lose that "loquat" acidity and flavor of the wild cultivars when it ripens, unlike Tanaka (bigger pulp, gorgeous color, but as it ripens loses a lot of flavor, only sweet remains).
Thanks so much; your videos are very thorough and encouraging making me want to try it. I have many seedlings that have volunteered and am going to pot them up and buy scions, thanks to you. I wonder where you live?
Great video as always. I attempted to graft some trees in my yard this spring using the techniques in your videos and they are growing well, but the wind has started to break some given their vigorous growth. I have staked some of them where that is possible, but for those grafts that cannot be supported, do you recommend pruning them down to reduce wind resistance? Thanks!
Yes. Absolutely! Very vigorous grafts should be pruned without fear. It's almost impossible to support them properly and the graft union won't hold. There's plenty of time to let them grow the following year.
@@JSacadura Thank you for your advice! I'm in the midwest and decided to heavily prune all of them before a big storm system moved through the area yesterday evening. They all survived wind gusts of 60-80 mph! I'm confident that the pruning saved them.
When he says Parafilm, listen! It's actually the most important part! But in the end, I like just multiple layers of news paper more than paded envelope, unless it's still colder in the spring.
Boa tarde Jsacadura, todos os seus videos são um autêntico tesouro! Relativamente aos seus Kiwis amarelos, qual o nome da sua variedade de fêmea amarela e qual é o respetivo macho? Grato pelos seus ensinamentos!
Ainda bem que os vídeo são úteis. A variedade da fêmea de kiwi de polpa amarela é o Hort16A, com um dos machos que a poliniza (não tenho a certeza qual). Infelizmente, é aquela que foi abandonada na Nova Zelândia (donde é originária) devido à muito elevada susceptibilidade ao cancro bacteriano do kiwi. Por enquanto, tenho tido sorte e a doença ainda não apareceu por aqui, mas sei que as minhas plantas podem morrer rapidamente, se acontecer alguma contaminação (a bactéria pode ser transportada por insectos).

Добрый день, очень поучительное видео.Я с Украины но сейчас живу в Германии. Как можно у вас заказать черенки мушмулы для прививки.У меня есть несколько деревьев маленьких. ❤❤❤❤❤
First I have to find some rootstock and cultivars that resist the winter over here (not much luck with them until now...). But I am pretty sure the same techniques I show in this video will work with avocados.
its just ok, IMO among the grafting channel u have the best camera work, and i appreciate it and also the information you share...also ur the reason i also use rubber tape, its much comfortable to use. im just a hobbyist just to relieve stress. thanks to you.salamat.
I have a lot of loquat trees in my garden all from seeds and none give "small fruit nor acidic fruit". They have always a much better taste than those from the store. And the truth of one year is not the truth of the following year (about quantity and fruit size on each tree). Concerning the delay between the seed germination and the first fruit it is 4-6 years as an average not 8-10 years. So I am not convinced that grafting these trees is interesting.
I have several trees, some wild cultivars grown from seed and many more grafted. Some wild seedlings are wonderful. I have a couple of them which are very good, but they tend to be the exception. Most wild trees are great in terms of true "loquat" flavor, but with very thin pulp and huge seeds. The ones from the store can't be called loquats, as far I as I am concerned. I have never bought one that I liked. They tend to select cultivars that don't get brown spots from the sun (which non educated buyers reject) and in that selection process they lost all the flavor. Now, combine the true "loquat" flavor with a thick pulp (>12mm) and small seeds and you have a great cultivar. Imagine a apricot thick pulp with excellent taste. Those are the one's I graft and they are worth it!
@@JSacadura "Very thin pulp and huge seeds..." + Comparison with apricot... There is nothing like that and I wonder now if we are speaking about the same fruit... The seeds in my fruit have always the same relative size all together (between 1 and 4, sometimes 5). Relatively to apricot it is difficult to compare since the form is different (sphere for loquat and "flat" for apricot) the taste has nothing to do, I don't eat apricot. Let's say that the radius of the seeds is a third of the entire fruit. About the same as the ones cultivated and sold in Spain, Morocco, Algeria... The ones from Spain are generally not good, often, not always. 2024 was excellent in matter of production among my 20 trees and among my neighbours. This is not always the case, but the climate in winter is the cause, not the absence of grafting. ..
I meant relative to apricot compared with the pulp size versus pit size. And the seeds of my best loquat varieties are much smaller than the wild ones and usually only 2 or 3 in the best cultivars.
I challenge you, you can't clone a fruit tree from Brazil called jabuticaba. Do some research and take a look at the fruit and its characteristics. No one here has succeeded in any method other than from seed.

Definitively no, for apples. Pears have some degree of compatibility, but I would use other types of rootstock. You're welcome.
