@@Ohmanwhyyourfeelingshurt On the tip of the donor, yes. But he also kept the other side of the donor and said it should also survive since sap flow can turn, or go both ways. So in that section the flow was toward the reciever, through the reciever and onwards along the donor. But after disconneting the donor, the sap flow is going from the reciever to the donor, both sides of the reciever. So on the tip side the flow is normal, but on the side he cut the donor it's reversed.
Happy to hear that! I find this kind of nerdy biology very interesting, plus it got implemented in real life which also makes it usefull information. You could do a review video from this and first show the old footage from the grafting process. I happily watched the video again to make sure I remembered correctly what the graft was about!
This is awesome, a very comprehensive video. I have a multi trunk, "spaghetti" pine tree, which I had no idea what to do with. I can't wait for winter to arrive, to try this out!
This is an excellent demonstration and has given me something to think about for January 2025. Can I just confirm you started to scrape away bark on the donor side in late autumn and then did more in early spring before you seperated in summer. I am really looking forward to trying this :)
Amazing work Jelle. I have been following you for a couple years now, and it's videos like this that will have a lasting legacy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and ideas with us!
Hi Jelle! Great tutorial 👍 .... it got me thinking: As I always had problems deciding when to do certain maintenance on certain species and got often asked a lot to write guides like a calendar for species that I'm familiar with. Maybe that would be a helpfull video series 🤷♂ You are probably the most capable videographer to pull it of. From a perspective of footage and species. (Like Pinus sylvestris, Carpinus spp., Acer campestre.....) Cheers!
@@GrowingBonsai I must confess that for me it is was a strain to write the calendar for agrochemicals and split it up for every beginner to understand, as it's country specific what they can purchase. As of videos you probably write short scripts before editing and adding voice overs. For species specific Tree Care there are some old guides on the bonsai-fachforum I use when I'm to lazy to write a long answer for someone :) Cheers!
I had wondered about this when styling a very tall, straight and branchless pine. In that case, we did some very heavy bending with the split trunk technique. Next time, maybe this will be an alternate solution - slower maybe, but bonsai is not a sprint . . .
I have done this approach graft on a pine many years ago. This was before the grafting tape so had to use grafting wax. Instead of wir I used cable ties that were a bit wide, and had success with that. One year later it had fused perfectly, but I don't know if it is still alive today since I sold it to someone.
Awesome demonstration - I'm sure I'll use this technique in the coming years! Can you perform juniper grafts the same way? Would you do this in winter and protect the tree as well?
I have don this with both elm and pine and would assume juniper to work too. I prefer early stages of spring, so the cambium cans tart knitting faster. I have done winter too. I am not sure it matters much
Thqnkyou , I just needed this info...I haven't graft pines , but a lot of others trees . A question , any idea of junipers grafting ?, will this sistem work,? many people shows part of it but I don't trust on what happened after that...I was also looking for root cutting in junipers...I have wonderful fast growth plants, very healthy and strong , but with a long pivotant root....what % of the length can or should I cut? They were veeery cheap....seventy cm plants , for half a €, And I bought a hundred....but don't want to kill them😢😂...as always , thankyou❤
approach grafting works for juniper, I assume self approach grafts work too. I find junipers to be resilient. Pruning roots is often no big issue. Look at my potting up fieldgrown juniper videos!
Great, can a Chinese juniper tree that has only one meter of old trunk left and no branches or leaves be grafted? I mean, can a tree that has just had all its branches and leaves cut off and only has one old trunk be successfully grafted?
I have never seen this type of grafting branches in Bonsai. Thank Jelle for taking the time to explain it. Very clear instructions. 👍
Great 👍
I had always thought that sap flow can't swap direction like that! This is new and good information for me, this could come handy! Thanks!
Technically it still is flowing the same direction based on how he looped the branch

I am going to admit.. I was hoping, knowing some species do it. But when it did I was pleasantly surprised. It is still alive by the way

@JaniLaaksonen91 interesting idea! And well.. With a phd in biological field I guess nerdy applies here :)
Jelle thanks for taking the time to shoot this video over two years. You are a true hero of the online bonsai community.
thanks so much!

great! Let me know how you go!
Well, this was very interesting! I have not come to a point yet, where grafting would be needed, but this is a neat technique!
Old fieldstock or yamadori often will need it. A well-prepared prebonsai doesn;t!
I am a beginner bonsai tree, I have never made a bonsai from this tree, thank you for sharing.❤❤❤❤❤
gladly!
Brilliant 👏. Thanks Jelle.
youre welcome!
Excellent video on this technique. Really nicely sir 👌 👍
Thank you so much!

yes, the idea is to weaken the donor side of the branch. weaning the graft off. Just a few weeks to January!
Thank you for investing the time into making this video
gladly done, and happy you like it
Very good video tree will make good progress in time thanks jelle keep up the good work mate thanks
glad to hear! Thx so much!

Thank you for showing this type of grafting.
glad you liked it

thx for the idea. I am a little unsure, as I do not work by calender myself and really have to strain to make that conversion.

@Dirtguerilla will take a look. And.. nope, no script nor voiceover. I narrate as I do, what I do!
@@GrowingBonsai respect!
Thanks Jelle. I look forward to trying this technique into the future. Very clearly explained and much appreciated.
Have fun!
Thanks Jelle! I learned much, like every Video, you are my best! Greetings, Thomas
Happy to hear that! THx Thomas!
An excellent video Jelle. Very informative. You have achieved great results.
thank you!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Another great video. Very helpful, thank you.
you re very welcome!

Nice demo. Is it best to do this in winter?
I find it works yearround. Done in later winter, early spring seems to be the fastest!
@@GrowingBonsai thanks, I will try it

Would you hang little seedling pots from the tree if you were going to graft a different specie of Pine to your Tree. Would you do anything different?
@@PatriciaOConnorBonsaiBalcony that would be my preference indeed. Scion grafting is an option too but less successfull
👍👌🙂
Thx!
Could this be done with a year old seeding?
In theory yeah. In reality I would guess they are too thin to do this.
👍🏻🇬🇧
:D 👍
Is dit een oude video ? Want ik kan namelijk ook uit de buurt van Enschede en ik heb echt alleen nog maar regen gezien dit jaar 😂
Well.. It came out about 3 days ago. Is that old?
Having 29C today. Been sunny a few times this year.
Is het bij jou ook zulk rot weer?
nope
(math)
what about math?
