When and how to graft plum trees

1. Grafting time

The best time to graft plum trees is around July. The outer branches should be pinched about 7 to 10 days before and after grafting to promote the maturity of the scion.

2. Grafting method

1. Rootstock treatment: Cut the peach, plum or cherry tree stumps to be grafted at 6 to 10 cm from the ground as the rootstock to be grafted.

2. Scion treatment: Use well-developed and full one-year-old, pest-free semi-lignified branches as scions. Cut them into small sections of about 7 cm, leaving about 5 to 7 buds as scions, and wrap the collected buds with wet cloth.

3. Grafting: Use a grafting knife to split the rootstock into a split of about 3 cm in length, and cut the scion into a wedge-shaped surface, leaving 2 to 3 buds. Then insert the scion into the split, aligning the cambium layers. Then wrap it with a transparent plastic strip and wrap it tightly, and the grafting is successfully completed.
