THANKS FOR WATCHING!
Thank you so much for this. I am going to try this on a plum/peach tree that produces delicious and abundant fruit.
🦋👋Good Morning Everyone from Central Pennsylvania. Sharing & reposting. So Happy you’re moving Trees to Pecan Grove 👍❤️. I so happy for you guys. Thks Mr Danny & Miss Wanda. God Bless
@@BUTTERFLY31214 hi from south central Lancaster
@@KoolKid-e9u 🦋🇺🇸👍👍😂Hey neighbor
I've never grafted anything, but I've watched a lot of grafting videos. That is the simplest method I've seen, and the most straight-forward and helpful grafting video I've seen! I'll be watching for your other videos, as I've got some really old pear trees that I want to give a new start to. Thanks Danny and Wanda!
Danny I did pretty much same on our 30+ fig tree and I’ve potted 2 . This does work. Sir you and Wanda are an inspiration to us all even seasoned homeschoolers,we all continue to learn.
Thank you for your channel and your efforts. John
I have an old apricot tree that is been on this land 20 years. Now I will try to get a graft. Thanks for educating me
❤❤❤great tutorial video! I've rooted many plants by layering like the second fig did naturally.
Im so happy you and Wanda are blessed abundantly for your obedience and hard work! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for the Air Grafting Videos. I have done the standard grafting on an apple tree which I had bought, but didn't know that they don't produce well in our zone....greenhouse didn't mention that fact when they sold it to me....ugh... But anyway, I grafted three other types of apple tree on it with the help of my cousin who has a retail orchard from which he sells to other establishments. I also have 3 peach trees, other apple trees, an oriental pear and an ambrosia pear, and a cherry tree here. I want to do some air grafting on the pear trees now. You are such a wealth of knowledge for all of us. Thanks!!!
You're getting great figs from that new tree because it's all new growth. This fall, prune it hard.
True. I about trimmed my fig tree I'm half it's size last year and this year I'm getting a big harvest!
@breesechick Yes, the new growth is where the production is... all in the hormone balance act during dormancy; prune hard. I get great results (now) cutting new green growth (three/four inch cuts), snipping all leaves, leaving the bud end, scrap lower each side along a bud, dip into growth hormone, and pot it. 3 days later, I've got leaves. Growing fig cuttings has become an obsession. Good luck
I am getting ready to do this so I can take some trees with me when I move in a couple of months. So glad you posted this. Now I have an example to go by. Thanks y'all!
Good morning. God bless you both.
I’m thrilled to tell y’all that I checked for roots on my fig tree today. There are several good roots now. I’m just letting it go to grow more to make sure it’s sufficient. Thanks again for sharing
Good morning!! I’m new to fig trees. Planted a year ago. Thank you for doing this video!!
Thank you Mr Danny and Ms Wanda. Have never tried this before but now would like to try this. Appreciate the how to guide. Have a blessed day.
Thank you Danny; we have never seen this technique for grafting. We always learn something from you and Wanda.
I’ve heard of grafting but never seen it done until now. Pretty cool watching the process.
Have a very good day, my friends. 😊
This is air grafting. A little bit different than grafting.
Neat! So:
First you wanna find a rooting SITE (node)
Drop below that (not too far, so that the hormone doesn’t have to travel so far through the cambium layer) and separate that layer from the tree’s root system. Then introduce the hormone to the interrupted nutrient source. Pack with a good growing medium and insulate from sunlight. Correct? By Golly I certainly learned something today. Look out, trees! Here I come!!!😊
How interestin . . . .thank you, Danny, for the demo. Great filmin, Wanda.
I have never seen how it was done before. Thank you.
Thanks Danny watching you while the storm is going on around us.
Thank you Danny.
This Is too cool. Thank u for showing us
Good, simple instructions... thanks.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m so happy to know the proper way of doing this. I look forward to seeing this on Pecan Grove. I could see the happiness on your face with having these trees
I would love to have a fresh fig yum you are making me hungry this morning. enjoy yall 😊
I will be doing that today, Thank You.
Great information. See you at Pecan Grove for the others.
Thank you for sharing! Can't wait to try this!! God Bless y'all!
Awesome! Thanks, Mr. Danny & Miss Wanda! I never knew how to graft a tree. Thanks so much for the lesson!
I did attempt to do an air layer on one of my figs. Hoping it works out. Thanks for showing how easy it is.
Thank you! That was so easy! Great to preserve what you know is prolific. ❤
Extremely interesting and helpful, thank you!
We have one old Pear tree that was on this place when we bought it & we need to graft it. Will be watching Pecan Grove for the pear, Thanks !!!
Thank you somuch for pouring into us! I became a patreon ❤❤❤❤
Love me some figs! Now I know how to have more of them!😊
Thanks so much for sharing!
Very interesting! Wish I had room for fruit trees.
Thank you for sharing knowledge we can use and is beneficial.
Thanks Danny and Wanda. I watched @growfamilylnetwork last year, but I'm definiltely going to try it this year for sure. God bless!
I’m going to have to try this. I’ve seen it but never tried it.
Very interesting!
Thanks Danny !! Learn so much from you!
I love this video! I can’t wait to try it.
I just got the notification for the Mulberry tree see ya over there at Pecan Grove
I saw you do this for the pear tree graft and good to see it again so I am sure to get it right. Doesn't seem too difficult.
I'll see if can get what you suggest otherwise will do the coir.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm very glad you are and look forward to doing this.
Thank you for this video, I look forward to seeing more on Pecan Grove!
I haven't had success grafting my fig tree yet. I have to try it this way.
I will see you at Pecan Grove. I am very interested in this. Thank you for showing us this process.
Great video God bless
So well demonstrated! Thanks!
Great little piece of knowledge. Thank you for sharing.
There is a 100+ year old fig tree in my Momma’s yard. Air pruning is unbelievably easy. Just break some leaves off and place a 1-liter coke bottle full of dirt around it. A few months later cut it off.
I need to do this. We have a super productive fig tree I would like to have one more.
This was a very interesting video. Y'all are so full of knowledge it is amazing! I will be watching the ones at pecan grove for sure
Trim down that old fig this fall... trim it down deep. You'll be amazed next spring. Best figs from new growth
Thanks Danny Wanda,had forgotten that trick,You always full of information!iinteresting the fact of 2 yr old branch for fruit next yr!❤
Never saw that done like that before neat
And they say you cant teach an old dog a new trick, you just did.
Excellent instructional video.
Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you !
I’ve seen grafting done, but you make it easy. See you at Pecan Grove! Shalom!
Fantastic!!!
Enjoyed this info, i have figs.😊
great video
This was certainly very interesting!
Thank you for showing me this. Ill do this .
Thank you for this learning lesson ❤
But for grafts and air layers, I would have to start over with figs, citrus and berries after my LCE this year.
Thx for reminder and confirmation of God's infinite goodness!
I have a few sprouts on my Elbert’s peach. I am going to try this!
Very interesting.
Blessings
Good morning.
Morning
Good morning Danny and Wanda,front NC HILLS
Wow thanks ,,you give me an idea I've got an Indian peach tree that's going to be damaged due to Barn repairs
I have a Chicago Extra Hardy fig I can try this with, thanks.
Thank you Danny and Wanda I'm going to try my hand in that I have a couple of trees I would really love to reproduce, God Bless
For what it’s worth, I ordered WHOA more pawpaw seeds than I could plant this year. They are supposed to have superior genetics and, being seeds, each with be unique. If you would like some for PG, the price is right, and the time passes anyway so it doesn’t hurt to have something to show for it. I’m talking about dozens of seeds.
They usually have peat in 80lb bale size for septic tanks
Mornin’ 💝
Awesome video
Coconut is best
Thank for the valuable information 👍
Awesome thank you for the video
Well might try this , I did this as pring because most graphs are done in spring . I never had good luck yet. Crossing fingers
Grrreat
Do you think it would help, or hurt, to put a little mychorrizol in with the Peat to help root development?
It won't hurt.
Just, wondering, can't you do cuttings. ? Blessings to you and miss Wanda. Thanks for the info. ❤
Danny has done cuttings, and one of them is a four foot branch that he stuck into the ground by the pond at PG. That was done on video and he will be showing the results later.
@vickisavage8929 thank you 😊 love you guys. Stay cool, It is so hummid here in Central Alabama this morning.
Yes but they take to long to produce.
Thank you for the air layering tutorials! Question: Is it possible to air layer Muscadine vines in the same way? Or would another rooting method be better? I have some really old Muscadines on my property that I want to relocate. The vines are as thick as your fig tree at the base.
Easier... snip some of those new growth, give a scrap each side lowest bud, dip in growth hormone and stick in some potting soil (keep moist)... done
Yeah but like I said it takes a few years to produce which I don't have.
Benefits of grafting like this versus snip dip and plant?
Bigger tree and faster harvest, if the mother stock is same. The limb doesn't know it's a new tree so it grows identical to stock without any shocking.
Grafts can take up to 2 seasons to fruit.
Faster bigger cloned tree.
Question is why? .(in s.w. texas) I planted 2 brown turkey figs in 2017 from Walmart and every year the stocks die off and regrow yearly. Produces very good fruit every year and gets about 6-10 ft tall new growth. I assume it's the particular species or maybe a hybrid?
The point is to make new trees. It’ll be more obvious when he makes the follow up video
So we can make fast producing trees from our own stock.
Danny, the fig you were grafting, how old would you say it is ? My brown turkey keeps growing a zillion shoots out of the ground. Wish I could get mine down to 3 to 4 thick, main trunks.
This one is five years old.
Mr Danny how far up the limb, (from the tree), do you graft? Does it matter? Do you want a certain number of inches below the graft point for cutting? I Hope I'm asking the question the right way so you understand what I'm trying to ask.
Doesn't really matter.
Does this work on evergreen trees as well?
I have a Chinese Redwood that is well over 50 years old & maybe even 100 years old (my house is 101 year old - 1923) that is not supposed to grow here, & I would love to take a couple of "starts with me, if & when I ever move...
Just curious if you'd do it the same way or differently.
Have a great day/week. Stay safe & cool.
Mr Danny, Deep South come up on you tube, Pecan Grove doesn't. Why is that?
It came up for me

There's a link in the description below.
Are fig trees the easiest to air layer
Not really
