How to improve your graft success in late winter and early spring. My best grafting technique for this period is covered in minute detail with close-up footage so you don’t miss any of the action. These videos require lots of time and effort to make. Show me your appreciation by Liking the video and Leaving a Comment. Share the video and, if you haven’t already, consider subscribing the channel to help me make more videos. Thanks for watching.
I think you are being too kind, but I appreciate it. Regarding the grafting books... There are some that are quite informative, but it's very difficult to transmit some things in writing alone. Video is much more effective. Thanks for the nice comment.
Não posso acreditar que encontrei um canal português com esta qualidade. Simplesmente brilhante. Votos de felicidades e muita saúde para que continue a transmitir esse precioso conhecimento por longos anos. Seria uma honra e privilégio conhecê-lo pessoalmente, e mais ainda aprender em pessoa consigo. Obrigado.
This is a timely instruction, as where I am buds will open in a few weeks. I enjoy your calm speech and gentle music....and sticking to the subject I come here for....grafting. As I pruned my trees this winter, I practiced grafting the waste pieces together. When I go to the real grafting, my hand will be experienced...and my knife like a razor. Thanks for a great video.
I love the fact that there is always follow ups for the grafts; it really helps in understanding how the grafting techniques heal over time. One of the best grafting resources!
Great videos on grafting . I am using your methods successfully . On one of my apple trees I grafted 27 different apple varieties . Different flower colours , leave shapes, leave colours and apple shapes , apple colours and apple tastes ,a very satisfying hobby .
For me it's the best grafting channel! Excellent video quality, good, clear explanation and I like the type of content uploaded. I live in the Mediterranean so we the same trees. Thank you
I totally agree, I have found this channel very usefull learning about the many different grafting techniques and how to use them in the best way. I live in Denmark, so some varieties will not work in our area and our season is shorter due to our climate, but regardless of this many of the techniques shown in the videos work just fine adopted to our season 💪🏻💪🏻thank you for really good advices😁
@@مارياعلاءالدين-ض8ع In many cases the same Genus is enough, for instance peaches, apricots, nectarines, plums and cherries that are all the genus “Prunus.”
The best grafting guy out there. His videos are full of amazing tips and content. I have learnt so much from him. I used the modified cleft graft to huge success on a multi-grafted fig tree this spring. Thanks for sharing with the community. Love your work.
Hello! I love your videos, I learned a lot thanks to you! That year I grafted cherries, apples, pears, plums, peaches, apricots, and most of them started, so this year I was even able to try plums) Thank you for your efforts!
Thank you for sharing the unique grafting technique. This technique usually follows as the first preference of grafting various types of fruits and flowers too. Thank you again for your efforts and good video quality too.
It is an absolute joy to watch your phenomenol skill, the exactitude of each cut and movement, from years of honed practice - wonderful ! Thank you for posting this.
Thank you so much for your detailed grafting tutorials. Your tutorials have helped me over the last year since I started having a go at grafting. I'm always recommending your tutorials to my friends. Keep up the great work! 👍
Thank you! I'm waiting for your new videos all the time! Your peaceful tempo of speaking and working recorded on sharp video, clear scenes focused on a very subject of talking encourage me to do more in my modest tryings of graftings. I should confirm about recommended here modified cleft grafting as on a balanced type of grafting which I checked in spring 2023 on an asian persimon (Diospyros kaki). It works well on 9 years old persimon tree. I did 8 graftings in the end of April a little before buds opened. 2 of graftings were by modified method and with success. Also did 3 graftings with classical cleft grafting (1 was dried out later due to thin small twig and lower disposition on tree), 2 bud graftings - all were well growing. And did 1 failed whip and tongue. Whip and tongue was done once, and I didn't have an experience with it. Two parts were not combined well - I knew it later. As you recommended here I used thin layer of parafilm to cover grafted scions and used envelope up to 4 weeks to protect them from sunlight.
Thanks for the information regarding your experience with persimon grafting. Most techniques will work with them if the sap is flowing well. Whip and Tongue is excellent but many things can go wrong and cause it to fail if you are not experienced enough when doing the cuts. Practice makes perfect. Thanks for the nice comment about the videos.
Toujours d'excellentes vidéos, j' ai appris à greffer grâce à vos vidéos avec un pourcentage très élevé de réussite et je pense que vous êtes le meilleur. Merci beaucoup.
You sir are the best grafting teacher I have found, and this is the best grafting channel that I have seen. Thank you for all your hard work and for passing along your knowledge and experience.
Another great video my friend, thank you for sharing. I would encourage anybody that wants to try grafting to give it a shot, after watching your videos, last spring I attempted to graft for the 1st time. I made 12 cleft grafts (6 apple, 1 apricot 1 plum and 1 plout). and 9 of them were successful. I am waiting for more scions to be delivered anytime now. Thanks for the very detailed video.
Your grafting technique is amazing. I used it last year on my mulberry tree and it worked awesomely 😊 This year I’m going to use your grafting technique on my roses and cherry tree Thank you 😊 Thank you!!
I was so excited to see a new video. This was a great refresher course for me, we have a scion exchange tomorrow at the local university and I’m planning to buy 20 or so new rootstocks while I’m there and hopefully find some new varieties to try out. I just grafted 20 trees 2 weeks ago and am seeing some start to bud out already.
Hi, Jared. The videos are coming out at a very slow pace (some health issues are not helping). Best of luck with your grafts and thanks for the comment.
My 10 year old son and I really enjoy watching your videos over this last year and you inspired us to plant some peach, pear, apple, cherry and fig trees last.spring and summer which we will be practicing what you teach about pruning soon and try some grafting too. Thank you for sharing your expertise.
Thank you for all the great information. I did my City & Guilds in horticulture a long time ago, and learning to graft was part of that. But like anything else, if you aren't doing it regularly, you tend to forget a lot of it. Your videos have been a great way to relearn a lot of stuff, and build on that. Cut down twenty or so large willows this winter, so have been using small whip branches to practice different grafts in the poly-tunnel when the weather is too bad, or I'm making tea. Just got some MM106 rootstock, and have grafted some more vigorous Pear scions onto a rather sad looking pear tree I was given. Willows are being replaced with cider trees along with some fruit bushes, shrubs, herbs, and a dead hedge. Did ten grafts onto the MM106 rootstock yesterday with no issues. Some of the Dabinett & Somerset Redstreak scions were a bit thin, so I just used a cleft graft on those. With any luck, they should all take fine. I'm on an allotment site, so I got in some extra rootstock for anybody who wants to have a go at grafting. With a few being planted for future rootstock. I will be sure to point anybody showing an interesting in grafting towards your channel. You should be proud of the great resource you have built up over the years for anybody interested in this topic. You're also helping keep alive a craft which has roughly 4000 years of history.
I really enjoy watching these videos. Super clear explanations as to why it's done the way it's done + nice tips regarding graft protection and aftercare. This has helped me graft 9 different pear varieties on just one tree, including Nashi. I'm really excited for it to flower for the first time this spring and to see whether it can handle all 9 grafts. 😊 Also, there is some kiwi budwood waiting in the fridge to be grafted onto my super strong 'Solo' kiwi vine. It was sold to me as self-pollinating, but it's only ever given me male flowers and one or two marble sized fruit per year. I was wondering, which kiwi varieties have you been grafting? 🥝
The biggest problem with having too many varieties in one tree is being able to control the different vigor of each one, pruning those who grow quicker more aggressively. And the trees look a bit awkward because some branches are flowering and others are not. But you have the benefit of tasting different varieties from the same tree. I have grafted a few varieties of actinidia chinensis (golden kiwi). The self-pollinizing kiwis seem a good idea at first but the size of the fruits is often very small. Its best to go for male and females plants and make sure there are plenty of pollen available for good sized fruits.
I'll be starting my grafting in a couple of weeks. I use mostly whip and tongue, cleft and bud grafts with whip and tongue giving me the best success rate. Keep the good information coming.
Whip and tongue is, without a doubt, one of the best grafting techniques regarding success rate. In recent years, I find the modified cleft graft to be almost equal regarding results and, as I said, its more versatile and easier to do. The whip and tongue still wins regarding the solidity of the union, when the graft is young. Thanks for the comment.
I have learned a great deal from your videos. Thank you for taking the time to share you your knowledge. I did my first attempt at grafting and it was a great success. I grafted pear scions to an invasive bradford pear I cut down. Turned a trash tree in to a produtive tree.
I'm very impressed! Not just because your videos are fantastic but because to read the replies to your video's. Too many times people in the grafting and "rooting cuttings" communities make video's then never follow their "Comments Section". There will be dozens of comments/questions that go unanswered! Great info, ran by a man who is honorable enough to maintain his information!🎉
I don't blame them. I'm also guilty of the same "sin". I usually only answer comments in the first days after publishing a video (during that first weekend - so, those users who check the videos as soon as they are published, have more chances of getting an answer). It's not intentional, it's just that, since answering comments is very time consuming and with so many comments published every single day, it's impossible to answer them all. Thanks for the nice comment.
We subscribe because some of our relatives and friends are already your subscribers as it’s our first time to do grafting. We have old and matured tropical fruit trees and moringa we would like to use. We already cut our huge moringa tree into sections and plant them in 5 gallons containers. We will try to graft some of our favorites like jackfruit, longans, caimito and etc. We will follow your ideas and see if we will be successful. Thank so much for your videos and God bless!❤️🤗
I have watched these videos many times..simply amazing.I have tried to graft also..I am waiting to see if it worked..Thank you for your videos.. I love them
My first attempt failed because I removed the film and raffia as soon as I spotted new growth beneath the padded bag. The scion broke away from the root stock. This time I'll use the self-fusing tape covered with film and then bag and leave it alone until it naturally breaks through the film and is firmly in place. I've watched your tutorials over the last few years and really appreciate your detailed explanations and excellent videos. Thank you!
Hi, Daniel. If your trees are still fully dormant store the scions on the fridge and wait until early March. In 2-3 weeks the grafts will take off very quickly. Otherwise they will be waiting for the rootstock to wake up and a colder week could damage them. Thanks for the comment.
Hi, it's always a pleasure to watch a new video of yours. Thanks in large part to your videos for one and a half years now I have great success in grafting. Last year I tried many wild graft combinations (based on some sense though), many of which were successful as of last year. Grafting really is quite an enjoyable activity, whether it be purely for propagation, or for personal enjoyment and experimentation. Anyway, thanks so much for sharing and greetings from a very mild and spring-like northern Germany.
You're quite right. Its a wonderful sense of achievement when our grafts start to be consistently successful. That allows to redefine our whole orchard without being dependent on the varieties that the stores propose. Over here the weather is also quite mild and everything is starting to bloom.Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You did an excellent job of explaining the process in detail and the photography is really well done as well... very grateful. God bless, Miles
Started grafting as an experiment after watching a video on TH-cam. Had a large wild cherry tree (about 25 cm diameter) that I needed to remove because it was shading a large area and was of no use. Cut it about one meter from the ground and put many little grafts inside the bark around it's edge. 70% of them lived and grew extremely fast to about 1.5 meters in that summer. More than half were broken by the wind, they were too large for their link. The 3 branches that survived on one side made a large tree crown. In 3 years the grafts went from half a pencil diameter to thicker than my arm (I am a normal sized male). Like they were on steroids, 3 little branches took all the power from a mature tree. I still am amazed. Last year I cut a 10 cm wild pear tree and put about 9 grafts of pear and apple trees. Almost all lived and I had to shorten them 3 times over the summer not to get broken by the wind again. It's like a bush on a pole.
There's no need. Thanks for the offer. We all have similar experiences. You should see some of my Frankenstein trees that where used as experiments. Keep up the good work.
Perfect timing for this video for me, it’s soon time here, it’s been a long winter and cold early spring here so not yet time but soon! Thank you, awesome guide! 👍👌🙏
Another JSacadura masterpiece. It was nice to see kiwi used as the main example. Over the past few years, I have done about 1,000 W&T, MC, and chip bud grafts following your instructions - this year, I hope to try bark grafting for the first time.
Whow! That's a lot of grafts. I'm glad my videos helped your grafting work. Bark grafting is lots of fun too. You will like it. Thanks for the comment.
Greetings from Cyprus, and many thanks for sharing again your experience and expertise through this excellent video! Perfectly structured, very clear and comprehensive step by step explanation, and high-quality photos and close-ups! Well-done, keep up the good work! I look forward receiving your new video, thanks!
Sir, Your passion really shines through in this video. Keep up the fantastic work. I learned so much from this channel. Thank you for taking the time to create such good content. I tried the techniques you mentioned in many of your previous videos. Although I got success in modified cleft and chip bud grafting, but I’m having no success in whip and tongue technique😅, I’ll keep trying. Thank you for such informative and inspiring content.
Clean work. I enjoy this channel thank you for your diligent work and simple explanations. It's helped me start out and improved my success rate. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I intend to produce one on traditional ways of grafting olive trees. Meanwhile you have this one I made last year on using wild olives to graft good eating varieties - th-cam.com/video/LnRdRwTBhRU/w-d-xo.html . Did you see it?
Another awesome video! Thank you for your work. I have a question about the autovulcanizing tape. Is it the tape that eletricians use or is a special tape? I thouht that the glue used on tapes could affect the results

What black tape do you use for grafting
This is the best grafting channel in the world. This skilled graftsman should write books on grafting because the books are no good.

Last year I tried many wild graft combinations (based on some sense though), many of which were successful as of last year. Grafting really is quite an enjoyable activity, whether it be purely for propagation, or for personal enjoyment and experimentation. Anyway, thanks so much for sharing and greetings from a very mild and spring-like northern Germany.
You're quite right. Its a wonderful sense of achievement when our grafts start to be consistently successful. That allows to redefine our whole orchard without being dependent on the varieties that the stores propose. Over here the weather is also quite mild and everything is starting to bloom.Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You did an excellent job of explaining the process in detail and the photography is really well done as well... very grateful. God bless, Miles
Great video, thank you for taking the time, much appreciated!!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment.
Thank you. I am going to be trying my first grafting within the next few weeks.
Best of luck! Thanks for the comment.
Very clear and precise, expert grafting 100%.
Thank you for the extensive explanation!!! Awesome video.
Started grafting as an experiment after watching a video on TH-cam. Had a large wild cherry tree (about 25 cm diameter) that I needed to remove because it was shading a large area and was of no use. Cut it about one meter from the ground and put many little grafts inside the bark around it's edge. 70% of them lived and grew extremely fast to about 1.5 meters in that summer. More than half were broken by the wind, they were too large for their link. The 3 branches that survived on one side made a large tree crown. In 3 years the grafts went from half a pencil diameter to thicker than my arm (I am a normal sized male). Like they were on steroids, 3 little branches took all the power from a mature tree. I still am amazed. Last year I cut a 10 cm wild pear tree and put about 9 grafts of pear and apple trees. Almost all lived and I had to shorten them 3 times over the summer not to get broken by the wind again. It's like a bush on a pole.
That's a very interesting result from your graft experiments. Thanks for sharing.
If you are curious, I can send you pictures with my experiments.
There's no need. Thanks for the offer. We all have similar experiences. You should see some of my Frankenstein trees that where used as experiments. Keep up the good work.
Excellent video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Its For me also the best grafting channel !
You're too kind! Thanks for the comment.
Perfect timing for this video for me, it’s soon time here, it’s been a long winter and cold early spring here so not yet time but soon! Thank you, awesome guide! 👍👌🙏
Another JSacadura masterpiece. It was nice to see kiwi used as the main example. Over the past few years, I have done about 1,000 W&T, MC, and chip bud grafts following your instructions - this year, I hope to try bark grafting for the first time.
Whow! That's a lot of grafts. I'm glad my videos helped your grafting work. Bark grafting is lots of fun too. You will like it. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you! I'm waiting for your new videos all the time!
Greetings from Cyprus, and many thanks for sharing again your experience and expertise through this excellent video! Perfectly structured, very clear and comprehensive step by step explanation, and high-quality photos and close-ups! Well-done, keep up the good work! I look forward receiving your new video, thanks!
Thank you for the inspiration, you are a true master graftsman
Sir, Your passion really shines through in this video. Keep up the fantastic work. I learned so much from this channel. Thank you for taking the time to create such good content. I tried the techniques you mentioned in many of your previous videos. Although I got success in modified cleft and chip bud grafting, but I’m having no success in whip and tongue technique😅, I’ll keep trying. Thank you for such informative and inspiring content.
Great info, thank you! I tried my first ever graft yesterday, on a cherry tree. I used whip and tongue but cleft graft is the next one I'll try.
Thanks alot for your videos on grafting!
I will start soon on my cherry tree, trying out different grafting techniques you showcased.
Best of luck with your grafts. Thanks for the comment.

Another awesome video! Thank you for your work.
I have a question about the autovulcanizing tape. Is it the tape that eletricians use or is a special tape? I thouht that the glue used on tapes could affect the results
Superb video with clear explanation and excellent photography.
I do my best to make sure the techniques are well illustrated. Thanks for the comment.
