"You'll want to collect the scion wood. The best best time do do this is when..." I really thought you were going to say "the tree's owner is not home..." HAHA! :)
Hope? Ohh you WILL! And you just wait on how much more delicious your crops will be compared to the store bought crud.. leaving you feeling accomplished:)
Different varieties on one tree!? *mind blown* On a serious note, I found this video while searching "how to graft tree peonies". This was very informative and will definitely help with my search. Now to find how to find roots to graft tree peonies on to. Thank you so much!
This is the best video I have ever see on grafting. I have a orange tree that I just love but it has something wrong so I am hoping I can graft a limb to another tree !
Fantastic Video! Alberta can grow many different variety of fruits. Urban Gardening, like using containers, and courtyards, grafting is a great option to explore!
I have a 20+ and 7+ year old (since planted) apple trees I pruned back. Bought 4 new apple scions to graft onto them as soon as I see the buds showing on the trees. Red flesh, golden apple, red skinned, and yellow-pink blush. 2 eatin apples, 1 baking and 1 juice :D plus the Mac and mystery apple tree I have. Thanks for the tips.
It is well worth it and lots of fun! Turns out I have a neighbour with a pear tree so when I put my Paul's pear in I should have pollination before I get to grafting to it.
I have finally reviewed your grow light videos. You did a great job at explaining frequency and kelvins. Hope all is well during the wildfires threat and your community says safe.
We are safe and so is my family that was evacuated. I'll have more info in a Vlog I just finished shooting. Stay tuned and thanks for thinking of me. It means a lot.
Thanks for another very informative video, Stephen. By the way, someone commented you look slimmer -- gardening's really a great hobby I must say. We get exercise and we also get to eat better at the same time.
Excellent video, as usual, Stephen. I hope you, your family and friends are all safe from the wildfires! My thoughts are with our neighbors to the north at this difficult time.
+Alberta Urban Garden Simple Organic and Sustainable I hope your family is safe and we pray that your neighbors stay safe and they get that fire under control
+DJMovit Thank you my friend! We are safe and are working hard to make sure others are too. ill update you guys next week when the emergency stuff eases off.
Thanks for sharing! You made it look very simple! I have been reading about it and was a little discouraged to try grafting. I'm certainly going to try it now!
It is hard at least for me until I can see how it is done. So I thought I would share so others could do it. Good luck and make sure to keep me up to speed on how you do!
Been watching you channel for a long time on applebox. I live in Bega South New South Wails Australia. You are one of the best gardening You tube clips on You tube. Listing to the news I hope all is well with the fires in Alberta. Keep safe and keep up the good work. I would very much miss your clips. Thanks for what you do. From Don Liz and family.
Don Liz and family I greatly appreciate the concern. We are all safe including my displaced family whom are living with us. I am going to post a Vlog as soon as I can to give more information. Thanks again.
Such a clear and informative tutorial. Thank you! I was just thinking on my run tonight about how nice it would be to learn how to graft apple trees and then I get home and see this in my feed. You are awesome, good sir!
wow, i havent even heard about grafting, im totally amazed by this video, so pity that I can only give one like to it! :-D Thank you very much for sharing! :-)
I have a project going on where I have air layered a branch from an apple tree in my parents garden. Going to use this as rootstock. I already have 6 different apple tree scions ready, along with two sorts of pear and 4 different kinds of plums and cherry. You previously said that cherry would be almost impossible for grafting onto an apple tree, but I am going to make a try!
You look slimmer over winter Stephen, bucking the trend. I should try to do the same over this winter - time to plant more leafy greens. Due to my limited space I really wish I'd bought some grafted citrus early on, instead of just buying the first dwarf lemon and lime I came across.
You can graft to your citrus my friend ! They actually take grafts better than most fruit trees. Why not add some oranges and such ! I have lost some weight. Thanks for noticing ! I still have more to go!
I cut some scions from a heritage apple tree in Montana a few weeks ago (early October). We've been able to keep them cool and moist (now in the fridge). Can I keep these until the spring, when a grafting is more likely to take?
Thanks again for a very timely video Stephen. It's like you are reading my mind with this video. I live on the west edge of Calgary where the climate is harsh so I'm always concerned about viability of new trees. I've been focussing on haskaps and the UofS romance cherries for a while but now it's on to apples. I've been seeing these combo apple trees in the garden stores the last few years but always assumed they would be less hardy than a "single purpose" tree (don't know what to call the,). But if you are doing it, they must be ok so I'm going to get one. Now if I can just get the deer to read my mind and leave my trees alone... Pat
My friend the grafts I did are all doing well and flowering as luck would have it. Pick an apple you like plant it and work on grafting over time. It is a lot easier and cheaper to do it yourself ! As for deer a large fence is the best bet. They are rather detrimental towards trees :)
+Alberta Urban Garden Simple Organic and Sustainable Unfortunately my neighbourhood doesn't have any backyard fences so the deer wander through my yard almost every day. I'm looking at deer repellent methods. My motion detector water sprinkler works well in summer. Pat
That is so cool. i really want to try this. I'm thinking of planting a fruit tree this weekend. I guess I'll wait a year or so before grafting. Another great video!
I went to buy my apple tree and they had an espalier apple tree on sale for Arbor day! Five different varieties and it was almost the same price as the regular apple trees.
They sure are a lot of fun! I have an espalier combination tree as well and hope to shape it over time to become not only productive but nice to look at!
At least we can all go back, rewatch, and learn from your older content. Looking forward to doing some grafting to my fruit trees another two years or so. Take care!
Yes,just the grafted limb. It doesn't change the rest of the tree. One would usually graft from a tree that has better fruit. If an old tree is dying, you can make a young sapling grow that same fruit. A friend bought a grafted pear tree, it grew great, but never made fruit. Maybe one or two every year. I found one small sickly looking branch at the bottom with slightly different looking leaves. I figure what happened was the grafted part never took well, and the original tree grew instead. They used a type of pear tree that didn't make much fruit to graft to, probably because it has strong roots. For whatever reason, the graft didn't take well, so the original tree made it's own buds, and that's what grew. I guess. He ended up chopping it down after about 7 years with no fruit.
alright, so i basically remembered grafting exists right after the time window that's good for it xD *very* useful video, thank you! i'll be sure to try this out next year lol gonna try and craft a pink flowering chimera of sorts
What type of substances would accelerate the cellular grafting? This method would be easier than crisper due to less cleanup, but I am certain with the right substances you could drastically speed up the process. This is why splicing is faster. Any ideas?
Those trees are looking great already and will be fantastic with some other grafted varieties! I'm planting a Honeycrisp soon on my zone 4 property and I was somewhat hesitant before but it looks like it might survive just fine based on seeing yours!
Thank-you Phssssteven with a Ph. (oh gosh I hope you remember that viral video, you know "the one with the toothless greyhound"or you may think I'm making fun of you) Everyone wants a cutting from my green skinned white peach. Best tasting peach, I've ever eaten.
Awesome informative video, really appreciated. Thank you! Because of my inexperience, I overwatered my avocado tree and it died ( or so I thought) from root rot. Months after I stopped watering it I realized that it was actually alive and had started growing up from the very bottom, since the rest of the tree (graft included) is dried. The new branch is about a foot below the grafting. Do I need to graft it again? Thank you!
We live across the street from a planting of ornamental Bradford pears (at the city fairgrounds.) The birds come out and poop-plant pears on our several acre front pasture. We now have 7 trees with multiple types grafted on them. Red, Bartlett, Asians. Interesting fact. In Missouri, if you try and grow a "English" (Carpathian) walnut from seed, it will grow and produce and then die off over time. But, if you graft it to Black Walnut, after you select it from a group, it will survive, proving it is the roots that are the problem. I had several very nice trees out of the 100 seed we grew out, Better looking and tasting than California stuff, but now I have none of them, only two copies I took of another tree I found in a park and stuck on Black walnut in the driveway. Since they are the same, I get no nuts.
i love this.. this guy is so awkward on camera and shuffling around as if hes very nervous! very informative though man! i already know what combination i wanna go for!! hehe depends what i can find! already subscribed!
Hi thanks for the informative video. I was wondering if it was possible to use an established papaya tree as a roostock? I couldn't find any examples of people trying this but if it's possible, what kinds of fruit scions do you think would succeed?
***** All you have to do is ask "what would someone ask if they had almost no clue?" but in a slightly southern accent(I live in Oklahoma). It was probably the obvious question, and I was half expecting the funny "twenty years ago" answer. I dont mind looking a little uneducated if that means I can ask a question that someone else might be too embarrassed to ask. Teaching people about where their food comes from is a great thing, and I wish more people got into it.
***** Just saw that there are some serious fires out in your neck of the woods. I hope you and all your family and friends are safe. If you need anything, let me(and your other gardening friends) know.
I have a thorn apple tree that is pretty large(about 10"dia). I was wondering if I could cut it, and graft my "good" apple trees, or even pear trees into the stump. I hate this thorn apple. It is dead center of my pasture field, and although it is a great shade tree, it drops thorny branches all over and its not the best place for the animals to lay. Will this tree stump support apple grafting or pear grafting? If so, when is the best time of the year to cut, and when should I graft?
you certainly could cut the tree down and stump graft a good variety to your remaining stump. I would recommend doing that with a number of scions as you really only get one chance. You should also look into the method a little closer simply because I did not show the method I was using on the bigger trees.
Interesting... I was using only one way of grafting. making T shape carve in the bark and inserting petiole of young leaf into it. ... that way can be applied at the end of May and begining of June. all the leaves from young tree must be torn of, and all, or almost all twigs must be cut. I was sucesfull that way in grafting "Golden Delicious" apple sort on wild apple tree, and pears on quince tree. But i failed in grafting cherries on wild cherry tree. This way that you had shown could be more effective. and it looks simplier. Also, the period of a year for that way of grafting is better. Also, when you are doing T grafting, you can't allow mixture of wild branches and cultivated branches. Maybe sometimes, but it's not reomendable. Willd twigs will kill the scion of leaf petiole. Twigs are starting to grow from petiole in T grafting. Other twigs should not be there. But this your way looks to offer more options
Very impressive! Honey Crisp is one of my fav's for apples, I'm not just sure if we could even grow them in my area, but it sure would be nice to have fresh ones :D seems very easy as you've described how to graft them in thanks so much :D
I lost the top of a 15 year old tree to another tree falling and breaking it off. The tree is now healthy and is growing nicely after 2 years. Can I graft another top to the broken tree top? The tip of the broken tree is perhaps 2 inches and the tree I would want to graft is approx. an inch and a half. Can you point me to a technique that would enable this to work? Thanks.
I have a question for this channel. When we graft a plant, can we graft it on any part of the tree that we gonna plant or it need a specific location and spot..............Do we need to be graft on a certain exactly spot of the tree in order for it to grow right and properly. Or, we need to find the right spot on the tree to graft it from the cutting branch of the original tree. please respond soon.................. thank you
My sister has a potted lemon tree that has been producing for us for the past 2 years. Unfortunately, it became infected with spider mites and lost 90% of its leaves, with most of the leaves remaining on a single branch. Since then, growth has stopped; no new leaves, branches or flowers. Would it be possible to remove the barren trunk and graft the last healthy branch back onto its original root structure, making it the new trunk? Currently it looks like a "charlie brown tree", with one long branch carrying a full yellowing lemon on the very end (lemons take up to 6 months to ripen, this one has taken longer, likely due to the infestation).
"You'll want to collect the scion wood. The best best time do do this is when..." I really thought you were going to say "the tree's owner is not home..." HAHA! :)
Oh that's funny lol
🤣🤣😆😆😆😆👌✔👍
So thats what open season means lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So I can’t splice a pine tree with a apple and grow pineapples?
That would be fun to see !
funniest comment ever
All you need is pen
i wish you luck, bucko
Big thumbs up, hilarious 👍👍
So cool! I homeschool my son and we're learning about grafting. Just watched this from South Dakota but we're actually from Alberta so this was neat!
That is so cool!!!
I wish this guy was my neighbor. All the beautiful trees and yummy fruits will be on his yard. XD Forget Toronto, I'm moving.
Thanks for the tutorial! My new Rokakaka is about to be lit!
ah yes.
Try a dragonfruit with a dorian.
Stephen, your expertise and delivery was impeccable! Bless you sir!
Thank you now I can graft my stolen branch in order to grow a fruit to cure my hospitalized mother of a rock illness
lol,u serious?
Thank you so much I found you instruction clear and simple, now to my fig tree!!
I didn't even know you could graft trees, I just moved to a house with a huge garden with fruit trees, I hope I can find some fun in gardening!
@Super Clark Nani? What are you even talking about? XD
@@randomlyannoying LOL
Hope? Ohh you WILL! And you just wait on how much more delicious your crops will be compared to the store bought crud.. leaving you feeling accomplished:)
Me either.
Why stop with trees?! You can graft all sorts of plants. Imagine growing tomatoes out if a potato plant! Yep, you can do it.
Very well done Stephen,even in Suriname I am watching your video.
Keep going on.

What are medicine trees crafting
I wish you still put out videos. Your content is so good!
I wish I had the time my old friend !
At least we can all go back, rewatch, and learn from your older content. Looking forward to doing some grafting to my fruit trees another two years or so. Take care!
Once you succeed and graft takes place . Does the new fruit grow all over the tree or just that limb?
just that limb
Yes,just the grafted limb. It doesn't change the rest of the tree. One would usually graft from a tree that has better fruit. If an old tree is dying, you can make a young sapling grow that same fruit. A friend bought a grafted pear tree, it grew great, but never made fruit. Maybe one or two every year.

Just that limb, obviously
alright, so i basically remembered grafting exists right after the time window that's good for it xD

gonna try and craft a pink flowering chimera of sorts
Don't forget
What type of substances would accelerate the cellular grafting?
This method would be easier than crisper due to less cleanup, but I am certain with the right substances you could drastically speed up the process. This is why splicing is faster.
Any ideas?
Great informative video!
Really amazing
You should make horizontal cuts into the rootstock. This aids in supporting the new graft.
Thank you! (Who knew Star Lord had so much talent!?!)
Those trees are looking great already and will be fantastic with some other grafted varieties! I'm planting a Honeycrisp soon on my zone 4 property and I was somewhat hesitant before but it looks like it might survive just fine based on seeing yours!
Honey crisp do great all the way to zone 3 so no worries down in some 4 !
Hopefully the grafts take ! It would be nice :)

I lost the top of a 15 year old tree to another tree falling and breaking it off. The tree is now healthy and is growing nicely after 2 years. Can I graft another top to the broken tree top? The tip of the broken tree is perhaps 2 inches and the tree I would want to graft is approx. an inch and a half. Can you point me to a technique that would enable this to work? Thanks.
Is it possible to make a tree that can do both apples and oranges?
What is the weather temperature to do grafting?
Are there any hormones/growth medium that can be used to help aid grafting like with propogation.

When we graft a plant, can we graft it on any part of the tree that we gonna plant or it need a specific location and spot..............Do we need to be graft on a certain exactly spot of the tree in order for it to grow right and properly. Or, we need to find the right spot on the tree to graft it from the cutting branch of the original tree. please respond soon.................. thank you

Hello, where can one get the different types of apple scions?
great video
My sister has a potted lemon tree that has been producing for us for the past 2 years. Unfortunately, it became infected with spider mites and lost 90% of its leaves, with most of the leaves remaining on a single branch. Since then, growth has stopped; no new leaves, branches or flowers. Would it be possible to remove the barren trunk and graft the last healthy branch back onto its original root structure, making it the new trunk?
Currently it looks like a "charlie brown tree", with one long branch carrying a full yellowing lemon on the very end (lemons take up to 6 months to ripen, this one has taken longer, likely due to the infestation).
