200 bucks for a variegated jaboticaba... More viable here in Jaboticabaland would be small grafted fruiting ones that I could maybe sell for 10 bucks. I bought grafted variegated kumquat for less than 3 dollars here recently. The economies are way different. Nice video with good tips!
Wonder how different rootstocks change the flavour and growth on the graft, is it noticeable? The theory is that they take up nutrients differently, also have heard that at least for apples early fruiting grafts make autumn ripening varieties to ripen earlier and also that graft itself may change the taste of fruits of the rootstock ant other grafts on it.
My 7 gallon loquat tree died from some uncontrollable blight after just 2 months of struggling to keep it alive. I want to try again but need to assure my garden are is ideal for it. I love that fruit so much. I have loquat seedling that I started but don’t want to wait 7 years for not so great fruit. I also did put it in a bigger pot right away.
hello i'm from indonesia. I like grafting nutmeg plants, I often have doubts about how long the grafts have been produced. can the production age be normal like generative seeds?
Thank you guys great video, john was a good vibe brother, a question i have is does that buddy tape breath, as i have had issues with my budding wood once budding starting to get rot under the tape, so i then remove the tape from the upper bud wood and in turn the sun drys out the fresh buds and the graft fails, i know the "grafting tape" i bought does not breath and is not smokey like your buddy tape, it is clear and stretchy like cling wrap, any tips on what type of budding tape is the right type?
Pete, please remember new comers will watch these videos so correct terminology is important. Trees do not heal they seal. This is part of the reason the sharp tools are important so cuts are clean.
