Peach tree branch grafting method

Peach tree branch grafting method

1. Branch processing

In order to ensure the survival of the graft, the branches must be processed first. Before it blooms in spring, choose a peach tree that is growing well and cut a branch that is more than 20 cm long with as many buds as possible. Cut the lower part of the branch into a wedge shape to facilitate grafting.

2. Rootstock Selection

Peach is usually also used as the rootstock for peach trees, so the survival rate of the graft and subsequent growth will be very good. The rootstock is usually a one-year-old seedling, and a branch with a similar thickness to the scion is found on it. Cut it off and split it in the middle of the cut, to a depth close to the length of the scion wedge.

3. Grafting

Insert the wedge of the cuttings into the cut in the rootstock and tie them securely with string. After tying it tightly, wrap the wound completely with a plastic bag to prevent it from being invaded by bacteria and drying out. You can also apply disinfectant on the wound.

4. Subsequent maintenance

The grafted plants should be kept away from direct sunlight to avoid burning the tender buds on the cuttings. Proper protection should also be provided in rainy weather to prevent the wound from being infected by rain. After it resumes growth, it is necessary to prune it appropriately to avoid affecting the growth of the main branches.
