Very nice. Loved watching it.
Dudley, this rocks and you should feel proud.
Love the before and after. This is really going to help me start grafting some of my favorite trees next season
Just a reminder to so you dont forget to do it this year
Sweet. This video answered a question I had after watching the first video. Thanks for the terrific explanations.
i enjoyed this alot. my dads always planting new trees but he never mentioned grafting. im gona ask him to give it a try !
I noticed in your great presentation that you do not mention what wood stock and different scions you used. Can one graft an apple scion to an oak or cherry wood stock? Thank you.
interesting
You need to graft apple to apple root stock, or even crabapple. But apple to apple, pear to pear, and cherry to cherry. Sometimes you can graft stone fruits (peach, apricot, plum, cherry) to each other, but they don't always take.
It is much more successful to graft the same species, but different varieties. Grafting different species of trees together doesn't often work. But hey, experimentation can be fun and you could be successful where other's aren't.
@Salik Wani Benefits of grafting: 1. Quick change to "improved" varieties of fruit. 2. Using established tree (and all of the harnessed energy of the full-grown root system) to extend the life of heirloom varieties of fruit. 3. Rapid multiplication of desired traits in fruit, disease resistance and insect resistance. 4. Ability to graft multiple varieties of fruit onto the same tree. (apples on apple stock, pear on pear stock, etc.) 5. Height control for ease of harvest and management.
@Salik Wani not. You will only get the kind of scion wood you graft.
Whats the timeframe for this from start up to this point. One years growth? Great videos!
It looks about 3-5 years.
Yes, I have had 1 years growth of a Bosc Pear onto Bradford Pear rootstock that grew almost 6 feet. Of course, I had to prune it to a more manageable height the next spring. Didn't want it to set fruit on such a spindly growth.
I have been very successful as and amateur grafter . and have found the cheep stuff to work as well or better . I use toilet bowl wax a ring is less than 2 dollars and works great and better than the expensive grafting wax . that you need to heat . also electric tape works great one thing is use white , black will soak up heat and on a real hot sunny day come home to dead cooked new growth . if using electrical tape you will need to check and loosen it will girdle a tree in a short time . I have a grafting knife but use a utility that cost less than 10 dollars at lowes . you may ask why , well the 100+ dollar has a slim handle and is hard to maneuver with my hands . my folding utility has a stouter handle and folds and is always in my pocket . and is as easy to sharpen as a blade change . and a sharp blade is accentual for heigh success. a strait smooth surface makes much better contact
Thanks a lot for the recap
Tried to graft about a dozen persimmon last year. Was not successful but not sure if I collected the scions at the right time. I am in south Alabama. Your video suggests Jan-Feb. I cut them at budding and grafted which was early summer. What is the correct time of year for me?
Dormant for scions. Important to keep them in the fridge crisper drawer until the parent tree has leaves and is just starting to grow for the season. That way the root stock is able to supply excess sap to very small sized scions that will wake up immediately once exposed to warmth of spring and begin to grow strongly.
Good stuff!
Could you use this technique to grow two or more separate fruits from one tree stock?
yes /watch?v=ik3l4U_17bI
I have seedless honey locust trees bought unknowingly from a local nursery. Would I be able to change the tree to bare seed by grafting branches from a good tree onto my seedless locust tree?
I'm looking to graft a weeping pea shrub and it says it needs to be grafted into a root stock of the same species that are right angle can you explain that how it's done
How old does a tree need to be before I can graft a scion to it?
what kind of calk should I use any special kind to use ?
I use waterproof wood glue.
does tree type matter when grafting? hardwood vs softwood; evergreen vs cycads
Grafting capabilities vary greatly. As a general rule, the closer two plants are genetically, the more likely the graft union will form. Genetically identical clones and intra-species plants have a high success rate for grafting. Grafting between species of the same genus is usually successful. Grafting has a low success rate when performed with plants in the same family but in different genera.

hi, how to graft an ornamental tree, e.g. fagus Sylvatia Purple Fountain?
what is the name which cream you have used & where it get ?
how to stimulate new shoots from the tree ?
Would I use this technique on dog wood tree crafting?
Why do you not want a double trunk think going on if you put two sticks in on top in the beginning?
Double trunk will tend to split once the trees grows to maturity, the reason he did two in the first place was a matter of odds being doubled that at least one would take.
Goood. I have subscribed :)
Can you graft fruit trees?
Yes. We have a dozen apples trees in our backyard that were grafts and they've been producing for over 30 years
what kind of root stock are you guys grafting to? I have a bunch of smaller sweet gums on my property that I was going to kill but if I can graft persimmons and apple tress......that will greatly change our management of the property.....or forest actually.
How much time was spent between the first graft and the shown results? Thanks for your info and your work.
The grafting video was made in 2014 and this in 2016, so that would be 2 years. Not sure which tree though since he showed several of them
What sort of cut was that? The branch collar should remain, you just left a lot more surface area for the tree to have to heal over, ALWAYS leave the branch collar, and make a cut so the wound is as circular as possible.
I noticed that as well. He left the branch collar but maybe for this cut a small saw would have been a better choice, those big loppers can make it easy to nick the other branches in a tight space. At least it's a very fast growing vigorous tree, for sure it's healed over by now.
Came here after watching a sermon which mentioned grafting
I would love to show you me grafts but I don't have Facebook or Twitter.

What’s the point of grafting?
Avocados are a good example. Plan an avocado in the ground and it'll take about 5-7 years to bare fruit. Graft a stick from an avocado tree onto another aged tree (with established root structure, etc.) and you're fruiting avocados in 2-3 years, and more prolifically in many cases. Grafting as a general concept is a good way to use a tree's established root structure for a fruit tree that may naturally have a smaller, or less efficient root structure.
If you're moving properties, and you have a favourite tree or ten, you can take scions with you to clone them again so you don't have to say goodbye to those good genetics or that special heirloom peach tree you planted when grandpa died. :)
Grafting is cloning. You take scions from a known, good tree and graft them onto a vigorous root stock. The new tree will be a duplicate of the original, good tree. If you take a seed from the known good tree and plant it, you are only half cloning it as you do not know what tree provided the other part of the genetics for that seed.
THANKS FOR FOLLOW!!!!!!!!!!!
I know absolutely nothing about grafting... I don't quite understand why you need to do this ?
You showed us the results, but you never showed us how you did it.
the video was to dang short X'(
