Harvest the scionwood during the later part of the dormant season while the buds are still tight. Store in the fridge wrapped in a moist towel inside of a partially open plastic bag. Grafting can begin before the tree is ready to push its buds and continue after the leaves have pushed late into the spring. Here in Northern California I start grafting in mid February and go until about late April.
I live in Northern, Ca as well :) This video was just what I needed to learn to graft my apple tree. What month do you put your scion wood in the fridge? January and then start grafting in February? I don't want to have my wood start getting mold in the fridge so I am hoping one month will be okay.
A year ago, grafting was "the dark arts", but I had a TH-cam binge, gave it a go and everything took, although I had one graft ripped of by some idiot blundering through my property and another that was displaced but re-healed. This year, I have some confidence and have done a dozen or so grafts of varieties that are impossible to obtain locally but can be mail ordered as scions.
Wow...I didn't know graphing was as easy as it looked...thanks for the info...I have a good bit of fruit trees ... this could really come in handy. ♥ :)
Wow, very good video. I appreciate that you showed all the different types in one video, and with good camera angle to see it all. Grafting is so simple in theory (and in action it appears) but I'm still nervous that I won't do it right. I just pruned a few various fruit trees in my own yard and grafted some of the pruned wood back on lower to help shape the tree with a better crotch. If it doesn't work it's no big deal. I guess what I did were all side grafts, but I cut off the bark flap. I can see now I should not have done that. So it's a combination of a side and a whip graft I guess. Is there a particular time that's best to graft? Like, right at bud swell? I worry I may have done it a bit soon, but I think we'll start seeing bud swell in the next month or so down here in Houston. The cambium layer was green and moist.
OH MY GOSH YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT SAID THE ONLY THING THAT MAID ANY SINCE ON HOW TO SEAL THE TREE IS BEE SAP THE NATURAL AND ONLY THING TO DO IS VERY GOOD GOD BLESS YO ALL PLEASE DO THIS VERY GOOD
His left hand is bleeding he is so strong if If I was there in your place I would sit at home and do the medical treatment this is called a true love for gardening
I really like your other upload and now i'm about to watch this one, I subbed you and hope you put more uploads on, no not hope i'm praying you do ! I can see me in a place like that. I would love to go full solar power,grow own food etc.
I graft roses stone fruits apples and citrus using the narrow green tape. I just tape the whole scion as well and also cover with clear tape, in particular for citrus in spring since they are bad for having moisture loss. I just cut down the middle and match the scion to it. Works great.
FIVE STARS *****, Thanks for sharing all of your insightful information, I really appreciate what you are doing and sharing with everyone in the world. Including me… Make it a great day.
I use bee's wax which comes from the honey bee's hives. There are other waxes that would work fine like cheese wax. Also there are paints that do a fine job of covering the grafts, one is called Doc Farwell's tree seal. Thanks for your compliment
I use the side graft when the size of the freshly cut branch is over about 2 or 3 inches which is too big to split for making a cleft graft. Also the side graft can be used to add a graft in the middle of the tree to make another branch.
Hey, I really appreciate the detailed step-by-step instructions on various types of grafting. ALSO, thanks for the late season followup with the same grafting job to see how the growth took. I've used a cleft graft on one of my peach varieties (on a sacrifice branch) and I am excited to see the outcome. I have 3 apple trees close to each other and would like to graft in two of the other varieties into one tree just to try something cool. I believe those online companies sell trees that have three varieties the cross pollinate each other already. So that's how they do it!! Thanks again..
im from long beac. california,usda zone10b.when is the best month to collect scion wood and when is the best month to graft and tbudding on apple tree..ty so much.
I really enjoyed your updates. I find it very educating. Can you please advise, i just purchased apple M26 rootstock...so, when can i graft the scion wood onto the rootstock? Thank you once again.
+gideon dimai With rootstock that is not in the ground yet I benchgraft close to the time that I will plant the tree in the ground. Here in Northern California that is usually in February.
Great video! Specially followed up to show the results. Very educational. Thanks! One question, can I graft apple tree on crap apple trees? crap apple trees are native trees in New Jersey.
I harvest the scion wood for grafting in late winter from trees that I know to be of a great variety. I think that it might be difficult to find scion wood to buy.
Hi Feng Yun, Please look online for "North American Scion Exchange". You can trade scions by mail. If you have nothing to trade yourself, you can offer to pay postage/bubblewrap envelope & offer a small payment to someone who has the variety (s) you want to try grafting. It's an online community & the people are often helpful.
Thank you! I will definitely keep this resource. I am new, just start this year, my apple tree will come on the end of month, I will have to wait to graft. But I will do when it is ready. Enjoy your video,thanks.
Hey! With your help I was able to successfully graft a half dozen or so scions onto my trees this spring. I'm wondering tho, when should I remove the tape and sealant?
I like that you showed 2 different methods. Thanks also for the great, complete and clear instructions.
3
I seen 3 methods lol
This is a fantastic video demonstration with no fluff. Pure education baby! Nice work and thank you!
I also really appreciate the follow up at the end to see how they did!

Thanks man!
спасибо, хороший урок.
The best informative graft video ever seen on youtube thank you , and what is the wax? Where to get the wax?
Thanks

Since I am a Certified Organic farmer I use beeswax to seal the graft from moisture getting to it.
Is there another option?
nice background sounds.
Awesome work😜
Nice grafting

Wao thanks that was an amazing video
The green plastic tape is common garden tape easily found in many garden centers. It comes in a few different widths.
very good.thanks a lot
perfect. thanks.
nice vid
Magic my friend.
similar when i was grafted jackfruit
very helpful.
Nice sir i am from kashmir
Good luck and good worke
I am going to need some bees ! I can't get break … Great video I will give her a try.
melt candles darling
Paint will be fine as well
the beeswax is a good idea. even placing a plastic soda bottle over the scion-stalk junction can work
Great job, really appreciate ur work....well, which season is really suitable for grafting or anytime it can b done?
nice job
I only graft in the late winter.
I chip bud citrus in the fall.

Thanks for sharing yr video n technique of grafting an apple tree at woodleaf farm, it is interesting. Can I do it with other fruit trees?
I really enjoyed your video. If a picture is worth a thousand words a video is worth a semester in college. :-)
Yes college is a waste of time for learning anything but the degree makes it worthwhile. For people that can become self employed
Yeah, a video and then some practical work.
@@abhilashduttaroy yea the practical work test the practicality of the video
maybe soon...….as our trees are babies, one year planting from vendor. looks interesting. que interesante !!
