On Citrus I do a variant graft, in which I select a very narrow scion and remove the bark on opposite surfaces. One surface matches the cambium with the rootstock just as shown. However, the back scide of the scion, having had the cambium exposed, is now matched with the cambium of the flap that's been temporarily peeled away from the stock. This allows for double cambium contact and has been very successful for me.
Thanks it's a great help, alot more simple than I was thinking. I'm wondering also about one of the mango trees I have which is flourishing in the ground, about 3 feet tall. It has branched out alot. It's actually hard to distinguish the main trunk because it has 4 or 5 trunks coming out at the bottom. One is tallest, I guess that's the main trunk, but the others are just as fat at the bottom and almost just as tall. From what I understand a grafted tree should have one trunk. (Cont...)
I think it is fully enclosed to aid in moisture retention. The graft is most likely similar to a wound. The new growth will find it's way out and push through.
I am curious about the same. I am tempted to graft 2 plants that are in the same family but clearly different all together. I am also interested in grafting different types of coffee trees. I have several Cofea Arabicas and am interested in grafting catora and robusta to established Arabica to see what we get.
I have about 20 seedlings I'd like to graft. Thing is they're already about 2 years in pots and about 3-5 feet tall. I'm thinking they need to go in the ground and I'm not sure if I should plant them and then do the grafting. Also the soil in some of the pots is low. I'm considering doing the veneer graft since the trunks on the these plants is already thicker than most scions available. Any advise would be much appreciated.
You mentioned multiple graphs on one tree, could this tree be grafted with different varieties onto each trunk ? And also can a mango tree be grafted at any stage of development ?
Thank you so much for your information. I have been on a quest to grow some avocado trees. I love them, and recently found out my dads neighbor had two very large ones that he cut down (he said the taste better then any he had before), so now I know they can grow well here. What should you graft an Avocado tree to, and does it matter if it is a fruit tree or not? Also why not use the stretch tape to tape the graft?
***** I think so because he used a regular Mango tree to graft the "Kind of Mango" he wanted to have. But I know you can graft an apple with other fruits to it, and they all bare fruit of those choices on one tree, but only to the growth of that veneer. Not clear as to if a mango to it would work. It maybe it has to be certain categories of fruit to tree trees.. That's the best I know about it. Hope it helped.
***** you can only graft the same family of trees, anything else won't live or can't be done.......it's like can you breed a cow with a horse, no!!!!!!! what ever you graft, it has to be similar or related to it...
Very informative, and clear. I have a question regarding the parafilm M, how long can scions stay viable using that stuff? for example, I intend to get some scions, and it may be 2 days or so, before I can graft them, will they hold up? do I wrap the whole scion cutting with Parafilm M?
On the final wrap of the tape, it seems to cover the tip of the scion. Did you leave an opening on one of the buds? Or is it supposed to push through the tape?

Grafted mean 2 species matching together? While fruting they fruting both type of fruite? How about avocado grafting,root stock +same tree branch is it possible?
it maybe same species or not, No, only the branch which is grafted is allowed to fruit.There are different varieties of same fruit, so we graft our required variety on rootstock.
Hi Richard, in your opinion what are the 5 top tasting mango varieties if you had to choose? I would like to graft on my already existing backyard mango tree?

Hello Dr. Richard, I was thinking to graft 2 or more colors of Crape Myrtle together on a single root stock. The idea is to grow more colors in a single tree. So is it possible with the Veneer Graft? or any other suggestions for this project. 2nd when the Scion start to grow do we have to cut the root stock? Awaiting for your helpful reply. Thanks,

Hello, The grafting tape can be completely removed once a strong union has been formed. With a veneer graft, the top of the rootstock should be removed down to the scion once the tape is removed. For more info, check out our how-to-guide on our Fairchild website! www.fairchildgarden.org/home-gardening/plant-propagation/using-grafts -Fairchild Team
Nursery in San Fernando valley or ask any of your Indian friend. People are growing in Laguna Beach and Little Sigon area, just off Westminster, off 5 South
Thank you for your videos they are extremely instructional I have two questions One; will the buds be able to push through the parafilm when they start to push open? Two; can I graft small seedlings that are already in the ground, and provide partial shade for them until the grafts heal? They're planted right where I want them so I do not plan to move them.

May I ask if the Scion is a sprout(for lack of proper terminology) that is an immature stem in which the end of the branch will fruit into a mango? My neighbor has a beautiful fruiting Mango Tree which I am tending to while away, & I noticed the look of a very immature sprout which visually you can tell will be a mango in the making. If so, I may have access to a scion. ALSO, I don't have a parafilm "M" wrap of any kind, is there something else I can use to retain the moisture? Thank you!

cuz the mother plant is not the one you want to fruit...if the mother plant was what you wanted then, you wouldn't be grafting a scion to it right??? a scion is a prefer branch, which the parent produce really desirable sweet fruits....also the scion is from an mature tree ,so it will produce fruit faster than the young stock..

Avocado trees grown from a pit will not grow fruit for at least 5 years, and then the fruit may be bitter or uneatable. Grafting will promote fruit growth to about 2 years and will be good edible fruit

This is a very concise and helpful video. Thanks so much!
Great video, very informative. Really useful tutorials for beginners who like to try grafting
Excelent video,very clear.I`ll try this kind of grafting !

THANK YOU Dr., AS I'm IN THE PROCESS OF A FEW GRAFTS W/END RESULT "SEEDS" THAT WILL OF COURSE GIVE HOPEFULLY GREAT "" NEW COMBINATIONS" OF "HYBRIDS"!
Thanks so much. It was really helpful :-)
I think it is fully enclosed to aid in moisture retention. The graft is most likely similar to a wound. The new growth will find it's way out and push through.
what is the yougest or smallest root stock you can graft to?
I am curious about the same. I am tempted to graft 2 plants that are in the same family but clearly different all together.
I am also interested in grafting different types of coffee trees. I have several Cofea Arabicas and am interested in grafting catora and robusta to established Arabica to see what we get.
Thanks sir... great help
What is the good season for veneer grafting as well as air layering ?
I have about 20 seedlings I'd like to graft. Thing is they're already about 2 years in pots and about 3-5 feet tall. I'm thinking they need to go in the ground and I'm not sure if I should plant them and then do the grafting. Also the soil in some of the pots is low. I'm considering doing the veneer graft since the trunks on the these plants is already thicker than most scions available. Any advise would be much appreciated.
Very nice information thanks.
You mentioned multiple graphs on one tree, could this tree be grafted with different varieties onto each trunk ? And also can a mango tree be grafted at any stage of development ?
Why to wait for second leaves to come out ? After first one if we cut it then ?
do you have a link for that type of tape, or do they sell it on-site?
My parents have a mango tree that is very good. I would like to graft from it however I am having trouble starting a seedling. Any advice?
hi bro
thankyou for this video

Did you ever find out the answer to your question? I'm also curious
***** The grafting was answered below by "Joel Pedaline." Still don't know why you shouldn't use the tape however.
Applepiebetty The question I had in particular was, Does it matter if it is a fruit tree or not? That's what I've wanted to know.
***** I think so because he used a regular Mango tree to graft the "Kind of Mango" he wanted to have.

Yes
What if the scion has not flushed, but your rootstock wants to keep putting out new shoots? Do you keep pinching those new shoots off?
On the final wrap of the tape, it seems to cover the tip of the scion. Did you leave an opening on one of the buds? Or is it supposed to push through the tape?
Bud will push through.
Very many thanks
good proses I like it
Do you have to cut off the root stock or can you add a 2nd type onto a tree so you have a self pollinating tree?

Grafted mean 2 species matching together?

How about avocado grafting,root stock +same tree branch is it possible?
it maybe same species or not,
No, only the branch which is grafted is allowed to fruit.There are different varieties of same fruit, so we graft our required variety on rootstock.
Sir can I know the age of root stock plant age should be for doing this process
age of the rootstock is not as important as matching up the scion wood with the rootstock. can be 6 months to 24 months or more.
