I have watched lots of grafting videos by now, but yours really stands out for the good close ups that allow us to see exactly what you’re doing. Kudos to your camera person, and thanks for another excellent instructive video!
We are waiting to close on a house and it has an established fig tree! All of your fig tree videos are making me appreciate what a treasure we have. Just found your channel recently and am feeling much more confident about my first year of gardening at 51. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Paul, it is so much fun to see you working with those fig cuttings. I have been trolling the internet for years and today is the first time I have seen the method of grafting two growing plants together. Looking forward to the results. Thanks again, your videos are the best anywhere.
Hello Richard Bertram,
Thank you so, soooo much for the compliment!!! :-) I am hoping to post the follow-up to this video by late April...
Stay tuned,
Charles :-)
Thank you for that informative video on how to graft your fig tree with different varieties of figs! It was so clear and easy to follow. I can't wait to try it on my fig tree and save space on just having 1 fig tree with all the different varieties.
Great video, I spend a lot of time unraveling the roots of pot bound plants , they come that way from the nursery, so, so glad to see how you cut offhe lower roots.
Also so glad to see how you graft plants with plants that are still attac.hed to their own roots.
you sir, are amazing. Thanks for sharing your experience and wisdom: I like gardening but I'm quite the novice. These are fun experiments with a nice pay-off (even though you get a little less fruit than you would with 5 trees: my yard is quite small).
Never seen this before 😮🤗🤗
So glad I stumbled on to your channel. Figs have been my favorite for decades and you know your stuff! I can't wait to see how this graft heals
Hello Unit 1058,
Thank you so, so much for the compliment! :-) All the grafts are showing some growth already.... and 2 are attempting to support fruit (all of which will be removed in the first couple months, to avoid unnecessary weight against these young grafts). I expect to have an update within 4-6 weeks....
Charles :-)
Thanks for all the great info. I am learning so much about fig trees. Also I'm digging the leather shoes while gardening.
Thank you for your well organized information on grafting figs. I live in the hot part of Texas during the summer.and do not have any fig trees. Would like to practice grafting some of my other fruit trees, but concerned about the Texas temperature, time of year to attempt grafting peach, pear, plum as well as blueberries. Your advice would be most helpful. Thank you again for such a personal, data filled, demonstration of various approaches to grafting techniques. I am a Family Therapist. Your sensitivity in establishing integrative successful "new growth" for plants symbolizes what I do as a therapist for people. Mather Owen, Burleson, Texas
First, thank you so much for all the lessons I've learned from your videos! Second, I'm trying to root some cuttings in a growhouse and I'm using the cups, candle wax to seal the cut tops, and your colored string method for marking them. :) I hope to approach graft some of the varieties to a large, unproductive fig base in the garden. I previously cut the established fig to stumps and have some good shoots ready to go dormant next month. Hopefully I can graft multiple varieties on the strong root stock in the early spring to save space. I tried T grafting 2 years ago and none took. I love the idea of the approach graft because I'll grow some in pots, especially if the grafts don't take (I have more sun for pots -patio surface- plus a protected area the pots can go in the winter).
Your great !! you give really the effort to explain it well, it's really tutorial, I learn. Thanks so
much.
Finally an update, Charles! I have been watching you channel for about two years now and really enjoy watching you videos. This particular fig update is so exciting :) Can wait to see the beautiful giving tree you are going to get and looking forward to many more update videos. I am planning to create container multi fruit fig tree for myself, because here in Canada we can't grow them in the ground. Thanks for the detailed video!
Hello Sunshine,
Thank you soooo much for all those kind words!!! :-) I would have had more updates on the fig... but not much going on while they are hibernating all winter in dormancy. I will have another update in about 6 weeks to show the successes.... All of them are currently pushing new leaves and looking great! I am hoping the grafts get strong enough to support at least a couple fruit this year to show the differences between each for the branches all growing on a single rootstock. That makes a lot of sense to put all your favorite fig varieties onto a single tree that you can keep in a pot, and save from your colder winter months. Please keep me posted on your growing successes!!!
Charles :-)
Hello bosanaboyina sai krishna swaroop,
The rootstocks must be related. Species may be too related... genus is more appropriate. For example, a Kadota Fig should not be grafted onto a Kadota Fig (although it may work), it would be most likely to heal on a related variety, such as Black Mission Fig. Further, you cannot graft Kadota on an apple, citrus, or stone fruit tree. However, stone fruits such as peaches, plums, apricots, cherries and almonds are all in the same genus, known as " Prunus", and they can all be grafted onto one another. And citrus with one another. I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. Charles :-)
Thanks for all the great instruction. Awesome vid!
Great idea. Thank you for the clear instructions.👍
Good information..Figs is one of my favs.Thanks for your informative videos. Keep it on mate!
Great video! Thanks for all the detail.
Charles, I just planted my brown turkey fig last weekend in ground! I can't wait till it gets a bit more mature and then I too would like to try one of these multi graph trees next season. Also, I just ordered my 3 in 1 IV Organics white paint and it's supposed to be here Sunday! I can't wait to get it and coat my new trees with it! Thank you again for all the tips and tricks!
Awesome Andrew P.! Please keep me posted on your gardening successes!!! :-)
Charles

Thank you!
the good video mate many thanks for sharing very very interesting i have been lu ky with managoes
Hello des goulding,
Thank you so much for the compliment! I love mangos!!! When living in Palm Beach, Florida I had the Tebow and Kent varieties. I wish I had more real estate to add these fruits that perform well in the Southern California climate. Charles :-)
Such great, clear instructions ! I am so jealous of your organic fertilisers !! Living in Portugal I find it very hard to find organic fertilisers . Even horse manure is virtually impossible to come by. A friend keeps chickens and I may be able to ask her for some of her chicken manure ! Interesting to see figs in pots and how to deal with them, mine being in the ground. Maybe I can try one sometime in a pot just to be a lovely plant with fruit in a different area of the garden! Thanks for your channel/videos, I am so glad to find them !
Hello Susan Miller,
Thank you so much for the kind compliment! :-)
That's too bad that organic fertilizers are not accessible in your area. If you have enough room on your property, you can really benefit from making your own compost from all the plant matter you prune in your garden, grass clippings, kitchen plant-based scraps, coffee grounds, etc.... The goal (my goal) should be to become as self-sustaining within the confines of your garden as much as possible; investing very little to nothing on (organic) fertilizers and (organic) pesticides. Home-made compost is a great way to enrich your soil with many elements off the period table, plus feed the soil biology (worms, bacteria, fungi, etc) that will in turn feed your plants! Keep me posted on your gardening successes! :-)

Susan -Chicken manure is good too just make sure you soak it in water and use that water as your fertilizer. I have a chicken ranch so I use their left over water each day as the water for my tomato plants and you should see how huge they grew to and all the fruit they produced !

Great video thanks bud
Thank you for the compliment sheedo abazaba! Charles :-)
Very good
WONDERFUL!
keep ya joints moist
Thanks for the technique. I tried it to graft two nectarine varieties to my peach tree. But either I need more practice or the peach family trunk is not very flexible. My cuts quickly proliferate into further cracks down the trunks. Both the peach tree branch and the nectarine trunk start splinting the more I push them together. I managed to contain the damage as much as possible and connected the cambium tissue on one side. And hoping for the best :)
Give thanks for the knoledge
i have enjoyed watching and have gained knowledge how to graft plants
thank you
Thx,,great stuff
Bravo!!!
This is really cool - sort of like a fig Frankenstein lol.
..
Super.
Amazing
Your really good
Good morning! Thank you for all your teaching videos. Have not been able to find your product locally. I am in Glendale Arizona. I have called so many places in Phoenix Peoria Glendale do you having to have a list to know if there are any in my area I really hate mail order but if I have to resort to that LOL
Thank you
Thanks for the knowledge. I am new intor gardening since i left school. I have done some air layering on lime tree and guava tree.i am trying to do the v wedge on the quinne tree. Thanks. Azhar malaysia
I wish I had knowledge of these techniques about 15 years ago. My two fig trees are over 25 years old. One green fig and one brown. I’ve been propagating them and giving fig trees away for years. But here in CT I have to bury the trees under leaves foe the winter. They only get to see the sun for six months.
Thank you very much for your knowledge of the fig tree. could you please open the caption function so I can understand you completely through the captions.
I really enjoy the detailed information you provide in your very instructive videos. I live near Orlando Fl and have grown 6 avocado saplings from seeds, just to see if they would germinate. Now they are about 10 inches tall. What fruits could I graft to an avocado root stock. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I enjoy experimenting and you mentioned in a previous video that the scion has to be somewhat similar to the root stock. Happy Holidays.
I've thought about doing this, but we sometimes have winters (Maryland) that knock the trees back to the roots, and I am guessing that the multi grafted tree would revert to whatever root stock that I use.
Hi Charles. Lovely video about Grafting different varieties into one tree. AMAZINGLY DONE. I currently live in NY and zone 7A. I've planted 6 fig plant in my backyard for about 2-3 years and it all grew so beautiful and amazingly super tall. The height now must be about 8 feet tall BUT UNFORTUNATELY NO FIGS AT ALL. I also learned about pinching and now when I look at all the new growth and I finally discover ONE fig came out 😊. How can I get more figs and maybe I should fertilize them? Please help. It hurts me if i have to prune all so short like yours. I wish you could be here to help me. Thank you for any advice and I've already subscribed your channel. Good luck to all your amazing fig trees. I would be soooooo happy if you could share any cutting from your 5 in 1 tree cutting. Btw, I'm still new about gardening and I love it. 👍
THANK YOU THAT WAS EXCELLENT
Thank you so much for the compliment Joseph Hadi! :-)
Charles
Thanks for your fig cleft graph video. My question is would you suggest the same way to keep an apple cleft graph moist in lieu of sealing with parafilm and wax?
Great video! Thanks for all the detail. Subscribed a few months ago and really enjoy your videos. By the way, are you a surgeon? Those knots were done with extreme skill and speed.
Hello Mike,
Thank you so much for the compliment!!! And every month or so, I get a really good comment... If there was a favorite for the month, it would be yours... which really brought a smile to my face! :-) I'll have to re-view the knots you are referring to... But yes, there was a time I was pre-med, and spent years in a surgical research lab that included teaching medical students suturing techniques.... So pretty good guess!!! :-) Life then took me into real estate law... And for approximately 5 years, I have committed myself nearly full time to a career in horticulture! Again, thank you for the compliment!!! Charles :-)
No problem, Charles! Good luck in your endeavors.

5 years ago I successfully grafted a fig tree. Now I'm thinking I'd love to do it again. Can I do it this time of year in North Carolina
please get a lapel mic. Love the videos, thank you so much for all the information.
very informative video, gr8 work......enjoyed it alot.
Quick question, wouldnt 1 graft be better initially, then another onto that to give you 2 varieties?
only reason is that i can see your grafts are too close together, root stock is very thin for 2.
they will grow into one another wont they?
im just a novice but thought id point it out.
keep up the gr8 work
My man looking like the bruno sammartino botanist lol good video jokes aside
Hi love your grafting ideas. I need to know how would you protect a store bought fig street grown in a pot. I'm in Canada where the winter is sick. I put the plant down in the ground but it died on me. Understand from people you have to bend the plant over and bury it in the ground. Not sure how far this is true
I have 3 varieties of fig all grown from seed so i am looking to graft onto them and see what happens
Can you do the approach graft with avocado please?...def going to do that double cleft graft like that with a fig and might try an avo like that as well....Good vid.
Thanks for showing the different grafting techniques. How old do the scions have to be? And do u select ones with vegetative buds or flowering buds?
great idea 5 in 1..new subbie here^^
Thank you Terri Samonte! :-) I will have an update within the next week or two... Stay tuned! :-)
Charles
Great information. Very informative!! Who is whispering in the background???
I would like to know if you can combine topping /F.I.Ming with grafting and low stress bending
Great Video. Just so you know, most of the bone meal, feather meal, blood meal, and manure sold as organic fertilizer is derived from factory farmed GMO corn/soy fed livestock. Also, most of the alfalfa meal and soy meal on the market sold as certified organic fertilizer is also derived from Roundup Ready GMO alfalfa and soy. I recommend using some of these organic soil amendments instead. Compost, worm castings, crab meal, castor meal, insect frass, and kelp meal. I have been making compost out of grass clippings, shredded leaves, and spent coffee grounds, and it is working great for avocado and fig trees.
hello my frined Charles how are you i like this video its very nice thank you i like to see the result and wish will succes
Hello Fares,
I am glad you enjoyed this video, and thank you for the compliment! :-) I will be posting a follow-up to this video in the upcoming 6 weeks... So far, the grafts are looking great!!! Charles :-)
hello charles. Thank you i think all your grafts will be great god bless you.

Hello Fares,
I'll have an update up within a week.... The 5-in-1 has grown so well in such a short period!!! Charles :-)
Hi excellent video on approach grafting, I have tried to cleft grafts and all have failed. It seems I am not matching cambium layers properly any advice for novices like myself
Very impressed!! Can I vacuum seal my scion wood cutting with a damp paper towel in the fridge?
Hello George Vlahos,
Absolutely! However, visit your cuttings every few weeks just in case the the towel beings to exhibit mold growth. If you see mold, simply replace the slightly damp towel. Too much moisture can be damaging as it can suffocate the plant tissues. It may not be that obvious in this video, but even though I tied the plastic over the damp towel, there is room excess moisture to pass, and about 1x per week, I am adding more water from above with a watering can.... Just another helpful detail. Keep me posted on your cutting successes! :-)
Charles
I was wondering if you tried grafting mulberry. Maybe a nice Tice base with a few branches of other varieties?
How is your 5 in one fig tree? Your amazing.. you have made me re- interested in doing more in my garden. Do you have a 5 in one fig tree cutting yet? I would love to have that in my patio planters..
Hello Randy,
Thank you so much for the compliment! :-) Gardening is SO rewarding, and SO healthy for both your body and mind! :-) And the 5-in-1 fig tree has grown so much and is looking AMAZING!!! I cannot believe it has been less than a month for all the progress that is happening in that corner of my garden.... I will share a follow up in the next week or two.... And about the cuttings, just e-mail me in January so that I can prepare some cuttings for you by February, when I prune my fig (and most of my other fruit trees). Talk to you soon! :-)
Charles
Hi Charles,
I couldn't agree more with Randy, you beyond impress me sir. I've seen you're more recent video and your tree looked fantastic! I would to love to know how to acquire some of these cuttings as well?
I currently have a 7 ft tall brown turkey and a baby Panache fig that's just around 2 feet tall.
This is remarkable! If I have branches from the same fig - can I graft a branch onto an existing root tree?

What I do is make my own fertilizer with my horses manure. I put the manure in a large bucket and add water and let it soak, I use that water to fertilize all my trees and plants.
Thank you for sharing CSAcitizen Feather! :-)

Amazing video! Were the green fig branched that you used for the union root stock grafted onto another rootstock (the one actually in the ground)? Or were those original branches from the roots in the ground? Sorry if this questions is confusing, I might not be using all of the proper vocabulary. Also, once you complete this project will any of the branches still be growing the original green fig? I feel bad since you mentioned it was passed down for 30 years! Though, maybe passed down as a nice rootstock?
Hello Charles, great series of videos on Figs! I have a twenty year old fig tree that always yielded a very good crop of fruit. Over last two years the fig production dropped off significantly. This year there is just one fig developing. The location is ideal, against a south facing, light colored wall. Six other fig varieties in this same area are fruiting nicely.
Is this non bearing root stock a candidate for grafting onto, or will whatever has caused the drop off in production also affect the new scions fruiting ability?
Hello Nicholas Porro,
To be safe, and because figs are so easy to grow from cuttings with fruit generally following within 1-3 years, I recommend starting new. Most trees I have seen that randomly fail is due to gophers, moles, voles, rabbits, etc that tunnel beneath the tree diverting water, nutrients, etc away from the tree compromising the trees health and sometimes life. In this video, I had a perfectly healthy avocado with over a dozen fruit that was quickly failing sometime between spring and summer because of the efforts of a mole. Check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/y1FLUdFFHds/v-deo.html I also have a neighbor's fig tree that is severely sunburned over the past 5+ years with beetles and termites and ants that have colonized through the barkless (burnt) areas. I hope to publish the results of that tree in the upcoming month or two. Despite the damage, it still is supporting dozens of figs while it clearly is barely hanging onto life. Keep me posted on your results. Charles :-)
Instead of pruning the host could you air layer to get another plant ,or would interfere with the grafting ? Like, and learn a lot from your videos!
Hi Charles, A big g'day from Australia (South East Queensland), and
thanks very much for such clear, simple, informative clips. I am just
bummed it is autmn (fall) here now when I have discovered all this great
information on grafting. Never mind, I have written many notes for
Spring and am really looking forward to your updates! Keep up the great
work - you have a real gift.
Quick question: I have a smallish mulberry (say 6 feet high, with only a couple of main leaders), what would you recommed is the maximum number of air layer grafts you would take off a smaller size tree?
best regards
Ozzie
Hello Ozzie,
Thank you so much for the compliment! Very much appreciated!!! :-)
Send me a picture of your mulberry tree so I can advise how many, and where I would airlayer the tree. The best time for air-layering is when the plant is most active, spring, summer and early fall. You can e-mail me at Info@IVOrganics.com
Happy gardening,
Charles :-)
Great video! I just bought my first fig and now after watching your video I'm keen on grafting - LOL! My plant is in a 1 gallon pot right now and because of the climate in southern Ontario (I live just east of TO), it's going to have to stay in a pot. Temperatures here are starting to get warmer (nights are still cool) but how long should it be acclimated to outside temps before repotting to a bigger pot? Also, I read another post where you said to pinch off the 1st yr fruits - does this apply to potted figs?
Hello Suzanne Du4,
The best time to repot your fig would be just before it "wakes up" from dormancy. That way, when you graduate the plant to a slightly larger pot, the new roots can quickly grow into the new soil medium to gain the water and nutrients. The plant should not be allowed to rest in too much soil without being in contact with roots for too long as the root-free soil is more prone to rot and disease that can effect the health of the plant-- hence the reason to graduate the size of the pot, rather than go from small pot, to large pot. I would gauge the vigor of the tree to decide if you are going to keep or remove the fruit. I will be doing a video demonstrating this issue on my Oro Blanco Grapefruit within the next week or two.... If the fig is growing vigorously enough to your satisfaction, and its proving fruit, then keep the fruit. If the growth is not satisfactory, and attempting to support fruit, then remove the fruit so the plant can focus its efforts on becoming a larger and healthier plant-- which will ultimately provide you more fruit the upcoming year. Keep me posted on your fig tree's success! :-)
Charles
And thank you so much for the compliment Suzanne Du4! :-)
Charles
So? Hows them figs?
I currently have 4 still in pots. Panache, Black Mission, Brown Turkey, Kadota. You are giving me ideas . 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Happy to help ELRORRITO1! I've been on the hunt for the Panache fig for several months without luck! It would have been great to compare the tiger fruit to the brown, black and green fruit-- all on the same tree! Maybe you can beat me to my goal? :-)
Charles
really enjoyed
Thank you Jeff! :-)

The fig that has been passed down for x amount of years. Is there a way to acquire a few cuttings from that plant?
Nef Arious
Maybe you would like this idea: they sell this stuff, for packing I think, it’s like saran wrap and it comes on a tape roll with a dispenser. It seems like it would work better/easier than that cling wrap paper you’re using
Unless it needs to be able to let air thru?
On that graft would it work better/faster if you take all the skin off at that graft point
Mr. could you please tell me which fig has better test? Though you have shown four different figs.... thanx
Like it
Great video-Do you think I could do this with different plumeria?
Hello Sara Allan,
Absolutely! Plumeria can be grafted-- And in fact, one of my plumeria has been grafted using the cleft grafting technique. Here is the video link... just skip to 24:58 ua-cam.com/video/rHqd7WICKMM/v-deo.html
Also, thank you for the compliment! :-)

When grafting a new tree onto another does the tree that is receiving the graft have to be fairly little? Or can you graft into an older tree that has been living for years planted in the ground?
Also question when u remove the fig above the 2 nodes that piece that u cut can u replant that and grow another fig?
