How to propagate apples

1. What to use for reproduction

There are many ways to propagate apples, including using seeds, branches or grafting. These propagation methods are very common and easy to survive. The most common method is grafting.

2. Breeding Methods

1. Seed propagation: Buy some high-quality qualified seeds, which are shiny and plump. After selecting the seeds, put them in warm water and soak them for a day, then take them out and mix them evenly with wet sand. At the same time, prepare suitable land, moisten the soil with water before sowing, sow the seeds in the soil after germination and cover them with soil.

2. Branch propagation: This method cannot use weak branches. There should be 5 or 6 buds on the branches, and they should be propagated as soon as possible after cutting. The method of cuttings is also very simple, just insert the branches into the soil.

3. Grafting reproduction: There are two methods of grafting, one is the sleeve grafting method and the other is the stick grafting method. The grafting method is very commonly used. The crown of the grafted sapling should be removed and a "T"-shaped button should be cut into it using a knife. Then use the empty tube scion to fix it, insert it into the grafted mouth, and finally wrap it up.
