wow, man I learned a ton during that video, I got a lot of trees of all kinds, and I am just now getting into grafting, even the oriole bird at the end, I just found out what a oriole was a week ago and its one of my favorite birds in my garden, this one was for me
Thank you! I always find your videos so inspiring. Brings back happy memories of my grandfather's "magic" apple tree outside his kitchen window on which five varieties grew. 🙏
Enjoyed this vid Stefan...thank you for sharing your time/talents with us. You are blessed to have such a good worker = Sebastian, to assist you. He is a 'Worker'! God Bless you, Sebastian and families.
Hello Mr. Stefan! I have a question for you! I have planted pear trees 4 years ago and last year i got my first pears to eat. This year we had nice timing for the flowers and polination so i picked some of the little pears. Now i'm starting to see new flowers on this years fresh shoots. I read that pears and apples only produce fruit on three year old branches. I am surprised and i would like to know why! Sorry if i butchered the spelling!
Next year's flowers are decided by this year's healthiness. Perhaps an oversupply of nutrients? This might lead to a tie up of nutrients (from an imbalance) in the year after, kind of an up and down supply instead of being more stable and so a biennial flowering might be encouraged, which is not desirable.
Fine if you want to graft the same species of nitrogen fixing tree. Best to graft within the same species. Between families there is no compatibility or very little chance.

Glad you enjoyed and learned something.

Thank you very much!
Some of those rootstock you pull up in the spring can take a graft right away to grow that year.! 😮
I always used non-toxic spray paint when I pruned that way moisture in bugs did not get in kept the tree healthy
what time of year do you get the best results starting the grafts?
After the risk of hard frost in spring before full leaf out.
@@StefanSobkowiak Thank you
I love your chainsaw precut- to- heal, you wizen hiemer you.!❤😂

I have heard that pear can be grafted onto hawthorn. Have you tried this? Is there anything else that can be grafted onto hawthorn? Thx.
I only know pear and quince... but its not used today cause the risk of fireblight...
I've seen it used (pear on hawthorn) but have not seen the results long term (more than 5 years). There are probably other combinations.

Good question András. I also have that happen occasionally and never looked into why. These late flowers usually does not give fruit.
Next year's flowers are decided by this year's healthiness. Perhaps an oversupply of nutrients? This might lead to a tie up of nutrients (from an imbalance) in the year after, kind of an up and down supply instead of being more stable and so a biennial flowering might be encouraged, which is not desirable.
C'est super intéressant, merci! Par contre je suis déçu qu'il n'y a aucun contenu en français, même pas votre site web :(
Le site web français est en processus. On a une playlist de vidéos en français, voici: th-cam.com/play/PL2KDEvIH0SXxS4KuumU2XupTPw3FgkA37.html.
@@StefanSobkowiak Génial merci beaucoup pour tout!
How feasible would it be to use some nitrogen fixing species as 'root stock'?
Fine if you want to graft the same species of nitrogen fixing tree. Best to graft within the same species. Between families there is no compatibility or very little chance.
@@StefanSobkowiak Hydroponic Gardening and More with Brent, just put up a video showing off his apple grafted onto pear, 5 years later...
Would have been better off grafting to the root stalk. Looks like the trees are really sickly and struggling frankensteined like that.
Another great video. Keep on informing I am here to soak it on. lol
Will do!
I've been jumping from one video to the next for over an hour all from th-cam.com/video/q-Te1Fbpeal/w-d-xo.html Taking many notes! Thank you!
Idée de sujet: quelle est la taille idéale pour un verger permaculture? Combien d'acres pour un projet de votre type, etc
Idéal depend de l'objectif. Un demi acre à 1,000 acres, j'aimerais voir de grands verger de ce type.
