When is the time to graft grapefruit?

1. Spring

Fruit trees are usually grafted in the spring. The best time for grafting is in early March because the fruit trees are in the preparation period for germination or sprouting. You can choose healthy branches from the fruit tree, then cut a small hole on the selected rootstock, tie it tightly with plastic film and wait for it to sprout.

2. Summer

In summer, belly grafting is usually performed on fruit trees. The best time for grafting is from May to June. You can also choose healthy branches from the fruit tree, then cut an inverted wedge-shaped cutting on the selected rootstock, tie it tightly with plastic film and wait for germination.

Autumn

It is best to use bud grafting when grafting fruit trees in autumn. You can cut the buds that grow from new branches on the fruit tree, leaving some wood on them, and then graft them onto the rootstock you want to graft. Then you can wait for them to grow into seedlings.

4. Winter

The weather is relatively cold in winter, and the climate is not suitable for grafting fruit trees. You can try it in places with warm climates, or you can do it in a greenhouse.
