So how long the graft will be taken? I am still beginner
@ArkefthosBonsai
@ArkefthosBonsai Күн бұрын
This kind of graft, veneer graft, takes about a month, in a controlled environment, a high humidity chamber with artificial light and daily misting. But needs one more to stay in before slowly being introduced to outside conditions and complete shade for the summer. Some grafts might be able to get an hour of sunlight by June and full sun from late September, but not all. It's a process that requires a learning curve. Not the easiest task. Cheers!

@@ArkefthosBonsai I just started graft mine 10 days ago and 2 hours morning sun, I cover with plastic bag and see some moisture inside, may I ask is it good with that moisture sighn? Some people said is good and some said it’s normal reaction with that moisture

@locpham-ie6ly moisture inside is good. But 2 hours of morning sun is bad. Even minutes of direct sunlight will fry the graft way before it gets to fuse. Now is really the worst time to graft in the northern hemisphere. It is way to hot. For grafting you need very low temperatures. Lower than 20C. Now, even in full shade, is too hot. I'm afraid they will fail. You should try again in September, or when your day temperatures doesn't go higher than 20C. Good luck!

@locpham-ie6ly I'm sorry, the grafts will fail. When the sun hits the bag, the temperatures inside rise to insane levels. No conifer graft can survive this. At least put the tree in full shade. No direct sunlight. Still chances are bad this time of year. But if you succeed let me know. It will be a beautiful miracle! But try again in mid to late September or even October, when temperatures are lower.

@ArkefthosBonsai
@ArkefthosBonsai 8 күн бұрын
The tree is fine! Not all pine species have the same resilience. This trunk is Pinus nigra, they are just different, better in surviving! The thunbergii grafts which were further ahead in spring took a big hit from the root work and stopped growing for 2 months. By then the nigra buds had started a slow elongation. They now have needles popping up and they set new buds for next year which are looking very strong. It was in full sun up until yesterday when I moved it in half sun until September. I'm going to show the tree in the upcoming updates video. But this repotting is so necessary for a tree to become a bonsai. It's unavoidable. Cheers!

Hi, I watched your video about grafting pines, and I am preparing to graft a Scots pine by bringing its own branches closer to the trunk of an old, cracked, approximately 30-year-old tree. I am from Poland, and here the proper time for grafting is January-February because later any wound is quickly covered with resin. If you don't mind, I would like to ask a few questions that are troubling me. Could you please provide information on how long and with what success you have been using this grafting method? Could you explain why you use paste instead of dedicated grafting film? Would a foil tape wrapped around the grafting site offer any benefit? Furthermore, I wanted to ask why you do not prepare the scion, i.e., why you do not remove the bark and expose the cambium tissue. Wouldn't this accelerate the grafting process, or is it because the resin might interfere with the tissue connection? Also, to improve the success of the grafting, should I restrict the growth of other parts of the plant except for the grafted area to direct energy to the grafting site, or should I just leave it alone and not perform any treatments on the pine?

@@ArkefthosBonsai cheers my friend... Unlike you, we only have 2 seasons, wet and dry, and sadly I don't have all the various species you have....but we have the black pine. So when I get one I'll be styling and caring for it with your guidance 🎉🎉

@trybonsai that is most surprising! Since I can't have tropicals, I avoid getting info on them, but if you post about a black pine in Trinidad, now that is going to be very interesting!!
