@@FlomatonFamous Good point. He is a grafting machine. I wish him all the best either way. Does Mr. Larry have any good book recommendations for growing southern fruit or grafting? I would love to know what you guys read to learn your craft.
It was so good to hear the elderly gentleman with such vast experience and outright detailed explanation with so much encouragement in various types of grafting.Thanks for the broadcast.From Rajesh Moses. Soth India.
I love how uncomplicated you make this seem. It gives me much more confidence in being able to succeed. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills.
Great info! Answered a question I had about when to remove the graft tape/electrical tape, etc. Plum seems to be the easiest out of everything we've tried thus far.
Lots of variables go into deciding rootstock. Depending on if you have nematodes, or clay, or wet soil, or dry soil. ctl.cornell.edu/wp-content/uploads/plants/GENEVA-Apple-Rootstocks-Comparison-Chart.pdf
Is there any requirement for the bud scion from a tree of a particular age? I've heard that scion wood from a fruit tree that flowered and fruited for a few years is preferred.
Thank you Sir. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Nothing beats a man with years of experience sharing.
Mr. Larry needs to write a book with all his knowledge. Randall knows "Good" guy that writes and prints books.😉
I agree, Mr. Larry would have to slow down to write a book lol.

I use: The Bench Grafter's Handbook: Principles & Practice. Mr. Larry uses: The Grafter's handbook
I agree so much knowledge that doesn't need to be lost

New sub here. What kind of root stock would you recommend for a total beginner?? Located in southern middle Tennessee..
Lots of variables go into deciding rootstock. Depending on if you have nematodes, or clay, or wet soil, or dry soil. ctl.cornell.edu/wp-content/uploads/plants/GENEVA-Apple-Rootstocks-Comparison-Chart.pdf
Electrical tape falls off for me after about 6 months or so. I think the adhesive breaks down first
After grafting, where does he keep the trees? 1 gal, 3 gal pots? I assume you don' t want to heel them at this point.
In the greenhouse in the 5x10 pots
Can we add a southern apple sion to an antonovka ( very cold hardry) rootstock and have it survive in the tundra of the midwest.?
Yes, that’s the rootstock that Larry uses here in the hot south
Is there any requirement for the bud scion from a tree of a particular age? I've heard that scion wood from a fruit tree that flowered and fruited for a few years is preferred.
No requirement, it's the parent tree is already fruiting then the bud will be "mature" also.
will AM it ,, not will um ET
Thanks
