How to graft plums

1. Grafting method

1. Time: It is important to choose the right time for plum grafting. The best time is July in summer. It can also be done in September in autumn using the bud grafting method. The specific time should be adjusted according to the local climate, so that the survival rate will be higher.

2. Rootstock: Choose a suitable rootstock for grafting. You can use peach, plum or cherry. Cut it about 6-10cm from the ground.

3. Scion: Choose a thick and sturdy scion, about 7 cm in length, and leave 5-7 buds. After cutting, you need to graft as soon as possible, otherwise the moisture will evaporate.

4. Processing: Before grafting, make a 3cm long incision on the cross section of the rootstock, and cut the bottom of the scion into a 3cm cut surface, but keep 2-3 buds.

5. Grafting: Finally, wrap the top of the scion, insert the scion into the cut of the rootstock, align the cambium, and then wrap it.

2. Precautions

After the grafting is completed, you need to check whether it has survived. If the grafting fails, you have to graft again.
