Veneer Grafting 

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.

what is the yougest or smallest root stock you can graft to?

Great video, very informative. Really useful tutorials for beginners who like to try grafting

grafting my mango tree has been successful

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?

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 ?

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...)

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?

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,

Great explanation, very thorough.

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.

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?

Salam dari indonesia boss....

Sir can I know the age of root stock plant age should be for doing this process

Hi my name is mr. Franklin my question I have is what find of fruit will u get after a veneer graft. Will it be one large fruit from graft plus the existing tree or, what thanks mr. franklin

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"!

Who is watching in 2024

Very..educative with fine and detailed explanations...

9.50 was awesome thank you so much sir for your explanation

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.

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?

I have some 1 foot tall

Good misteri👍

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.

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?

What happens if you don’t have mangos trees near you. I’m from California what can I do

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?

Even after 12 years, your video is useful

what is he doing this for?wat is the purpose of this?

Why to wait for second leaves to come out ? After first one if we cut it then ?

What is the good season for veneer grafting as well as air layering ?

Very nice information thanks.

Excelent video,very clear.I`ll try this kind of grafting ! Reagards from Uruguay .

Dear Dr. Richard, I want to graft a Sapodilla. What type of rootstock should I use? does any rootstock work on all fruit tree? Thank you, Michael

Why do you wrap it all the way up? Wouldn't you want to have some of the steam you just added on exposed to the sun and other stuff that would help it grow?

Thank you so much, very clear!

do you have a link for that type of tape, or do they sell it on-site?

hi, thank you for the vid. - my question i can’t find an answer for is : what if my mango sion is a two-day travel away from the plant/tree to be grafted? is there a way to keep the graft wood fresh in a hot tropical climat?

Very nice process Sir👍 'm frm near Kolkata. Where frm u r,please?

Hi...after everything should i just cut and plant the scion as usual using the rooting powder for transplant?

hi bro thankyou for this video

Thanks so much. It was really helpful :-)

This is a very concise and helpful video. Thanks so much!

Ya but your just trading one plant for another, why not keep both, why cut off the mother plant?

Very many thanks

What time of the year is the best time to graft a mango tree?

good proses I like it

do you water the grafted seedling everyday?

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?

does this method work on japanes maples?

How old does the rootstock plant have to be before u graft with it?

yu

GOOD

can you combine two different plant? just wondering

Why would you graft... Particularly an avocado tree?

THANKS

what if you don't graft the mango tree?

When to remove the tape wrapped round the scion?

great vid man, i have a question: since i dont like osteen mango fruit very much can i graft an osteen mango with a nam doc mai scion?

what would happen if I don't do this grafting thing to my mango tree ? will it still bear fruit ? I know it can be different from the mango seed I planted because of genetics, but is there gonna be fruit ?

thnak you, is it awesome to have a mango tree bearing an avocado hahaha.

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!

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.

just do it alreadyyyyyyy... my god
