Grafting Instructions

Choose compatible rootstock: Select healthy rootstock compatible with the specific Pluerry cultivar.
-
Prepare the scion: Use clean, sharp grafting tools and keep the scion wood from drying out before grafting.
-
Make the graft: Use an appropriate grafting technique, such as whip-and-tongue or cleft grafting, depending on the scion and rootstock sizes.
-
Secure the union: Wrap the graft securely with suitable grafting tape or film to reduce moisture loss.
-
Protect the graft: Keep the graft protected from drying, extreme temperatures, and physical disturbance.
-
Monitor growth: Check for signs of successful union and new growth, and remove competing shoots from the rootstock as appropriate.
Grafting success depends on rootstock compatibility, scion freshness, timing, technique, and aftercare. Success is not guaranteed.
