How (&Why) To GRAFT FRUIT TREES | Figs, Apples, Citrus, Stone Fruit+

[@LittleJordanFarm]

Charles your excitement of grafting is contagious. I'm trying to find something to graft my figs with before they bud out. I'm getting so excited to do this myself. Thank you for doing these videos. Have a great weekend

[@IVOrganic]

Little Jordan Farm I’ve been wanting to get this lesson out sooner- so much going on this month! Glad that everyone can learn & apply these grafting principles starting now! Charles 🌱👍

Great job

[@stevenpritchard4742]

This is so exciting to add scions to my happy fig tree I'm hooked on grafting

[@healthesoils]

the bunny happy dance though 🙏 ..thank you for the info!

[@tavyfavorite1149]

You have a unique style in grafting, it stand out different from others people grafting. I thought wrapping the scion with parafilm or plastic bag is prevent from rain or sun damage. I think your style makes more sense " wet the paper towel and cover with plastic to keep it moist" . thank you sir for teaching us the right way.

[@CobberGarden-zx2zo]

I'm from Australia i've learned so much from your show i have a good greenthump i'll try my best to do grafting good job,,

[@kimrachea2697]

Very interesting lesson in grafting!!!

[@kimrachea2697]

That's very interesting to watch your show !!!❤

[@BeautifulAmerica100]

Thank you so much for this great video.

[@TRINITY-ks6nw]

This is PhD level work with common sense et practical application Thank you sir

[@multipolarbear]

the cuttings you sent me are rocking out very well. thank you, Mr.C

[@markhamilton5748]

Grafting is amazing fast fruits

[@Kim-FP5]

Just grafted my neighbors cherry tree to my peach tree yesterday. I am so eager to see if they take! I took all of your tips into consideration and used your paper towel method. I also grafted my uncle eureka lemon onto my Meyer. It may be a tad early but I tried it anyway since it’s warming up a bit here in Northern California z9b

[@gaylehendricks4727]

I would love to see a video showing the harvesting of the different varieties of figs.

[@fiorevitola880]

The three cuttings that you have sent and doing what you suggest for starting, so far they're doing well.

[@IVOrganic]

Fiore Vitola AWESOME!!! Keep me posted!!! Charles 🌱👍

[@Woodchipengineer]

I agree absolutely that it’s a miracle

[@pattihayden8100]

Hello Charles, how are you and your lovely family?? Would love to come again and get some grapefruit cuttings to graft to my lemon tree......I’m going to graft my lime tree to my lemon tree next week, fingers crossed 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@IVOrganic]

Patti Hayden Hello Patti! Happy New Years!!! We’re so excited for 2020 & hope this will be all of our best growing seasons EVER! I saw your last comment- but fell behind in response- so glad you wrote me again! Anything I can do to help/ share with you, please do not hesitate to ask! However, that grapefruit we all ate from about a year ago is now the site of a pigmy palm. 🙁 However, I’ll try to find the source for the best citrus cuttings that can safely be shared- as citrus has a lot of diseases that are under strict transportation rules. Citrus greening & miner are just a couple big concerns. Please keep in touch!!! Charles 🌱👍

[@pattihayden8100]

IV Organic hello again...I’m moving to Texas this summer and my new property has a pecan orchard! Maybe one day we can meet up again and you can video the white wash on all the trees

[@gapey]

I have a mature plum tree that I've been wanting to try grafting on. Think I'll see if I can find some cuttings to do that before it's too late. I have a neighbor with some kind of plum tree I can probably try it with.

[@BlakesNaturelife]

Great video Charles 👍🌱🌱🌱 watched till the end. I was like wow there’s a rabbit behind you. You were determined to graft that apple tree at night what a pro! Gave it a like!

[@IVOrganic]

BlakesNaturelife THANK YOU! Charles 🌱👍

[@BlakesNaturelife]

IV Organic welcome! 👍🌱

[@mjcubo2246]

Thank you for the primer on grafting. Not sure what you meant about the "grafted side" vs the "back side" when grafting (see 36:45 to 37:08). What is the difference?

[@rickylewis4443]

Also can you tell me what I can graft a pear to as far as another fruit?

[@IVOrganic]

Ideally just other pear varieties- but you may have (generally short lived) success grafting pears & apples together. Good luck! 🍀 🤞

[@lee-eb2cn]

I would love to have some to graft.

[@GrowingWithNick]

Great video!

[@socalavocado8071]

Hi can you post a video on the giving avocado you pruned heavily a few years ago ?

[@viperh9948]

Charles, What is you opinion on grafting tools? They are pretty inexpensive and look like they would work on slightly thinner wood than your fig cutting. But it makes perfect mating cuts. Thoughts?

[@felizarias2450]

I'm rooting one and grafted one of the long neck figs I got from you. I really hope my craft takes. My root stock plant came from San Diego last year when visiting my daughter who lived in Santee. I dont remember the name but I really hope my graft takes. 🐇

[@IVOrganic]

Feliz Arias SO COOL! Keep me posted on your grafting success!!! Charles 🌱👍

[@jpthedelawarebeeman6239]

Hi Charles, I moved my fig tree a few years back and it went into shock and it did nothing the following year. The next year it came up but only like a foot if that so figuring it was in a bad spot I moved it again and last year it grew to only about a foot again. Can I take a cutting from that and try and root it to start a new plant? When should I cut it and should I only take 1 cutting or take the whole foot and cut it in half to try and root 2 six inch cuttings? Thanks Joe - Before I moved it the first time it was a beautiful fig tree and produced tons of figs.

[@Gepajay]

I tried to go on different nursery but unfortunately I can’t find the products you are advertising the paint you are painting to a 🌲 🌲

[@DancaDana]

How will you know that those wrapped grafts started to grow? Will you unwrap them then?

[@Andres-ok7fu]

Hi can i get a cutting please

[@davidkehr4730]

If I plant a Chicago hardy fig tree and graft a less cold hardy variety onto it, will the less hardy be more cold hardy? Dave in northern Indiana

[@IVOrganic]

David Kehr YES! Here’s the supporting article (read last 1/3): www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960982215000603

[@devbachu7072]

Great info

[@rickylewis4443]

Can you also graft a pear? How to do it?

[@IVOrganic]

Hello Ricky 👋 YES pears can be grafted on related (not the same) pear varieties. Some even have success grafting pears onto apples- but don’t last, nor heal as well in general. Best times to graft are late winter, after last chance of frost has passed: for me in Los Angeles it’s late January to early February. Or you can approach graft in spring, summer & early fall! Good luck! Charles 🌱👍

[@yannikin]

Nice gopher hawk bro

[@Litlroe]

Can you interchange any tree for grafting on any root stock?

[@shelleym.4197]

Charles, would the 10 in one figs work on potted fig or will it only work on on in ground trees or will it also grow on potted fig

[@MrOska114]

Thank you so much, sharing this valuable grafting. I am in Africa especially Ethiopia. I love planting rare fruit trees like Fig, dragon fruit and different berries. But unfortunately my area don't exist any of these fruit trees so could you send me these trees by DHL????

[@sabeesh1]

I have few fig plants which is sprouted from seeds. Can you please tell me how long it will take to bare fruit?

[@DrODWest]

How do you know what can be grafted to what?

[@LittleJordanFarm]

I'm only finished part 1 ..I'll finish this tomorrow

[@IVOrganic]

Little Jordan Farm This grafting lesson took forever to create- it’s jam packed with many helpful grafting tips! Charles 🌱👍

Can 3-1 protect my peach tree from borers?

[@kevinbowyer5592]

Charles I received my Figo Preto cutting yesterday, and I’m very excited to graft it. I currently have a panache tiger stripe tree and a Violette de Bordeaux tree. Would either one have an advantage over the other to receive the Figo Preto cutting? I was also considering purchasing a new potted fig tree and grafting the Figo Preto to that and planting it as it’s own tree, do you think that is a better idea? Thanks!

[@IVOrganic]

Kevin Bowyer Hello 👋 I’d recommend grafting into an established in-ground tree, rather than a potted tree for maximum vigor- fastest healing & growth. Charles 🌱👍

[@kevinbowyer5592]

Thanks Charles, so would you choose the Panache Tiger Stripe over the Violette De Bordeaux? I have both in ground. I appreciate your advice.

[@kevinbowyer5592]

Thanks Charles, so would you choose the Panache Tiger Stripe over the Violette De Bordeaux? I have both in ground. I appreciate your advice.

[@mctron22rd]

The bunny in the back is stealing the show! He definitely is photo bombing! I am fascinated by graphing and i am just curious of course and this may be a silly question but is it possible for the grafts to eventually grow out? Can you graft different fruits on any tree? Do they have to be the same kind of fruit trees? Can you put an apple and pear tree? I currently have grown from seed a red pear tree and she is tiny but an adorable little seedlings. I can't wait till she is big enough to graft. This is a tree i want to stay inside my house in my livingroom as a plant, I really hope the tree will be fine for a few years inside. I will be taking the tree inside and outside to get at least 6 hours of sun everyday unless its to cold. As it does hrow i want to try graphting but i am so worried it would kill the tree?

[@xiuxiazhou3832]

Will you still give fig Branch away, how to get it

[@markwalker600]

I know I’ve got the wrong grafting fruit, but... if I graft a crabapple to a honey crisp, will both plants flower at the same time for polarization?

[@Tallnerdyguy]

What strength fishing line do you use when grafting?

[@IVOrganic]

needabettername So long as the string does not break as you secure the graft- at least 6-8 lbs, or more. I think mine was 4-6 lbs, because it broke easily in my hands. Charles 🌱👍

[@Tallnerdyguy]

@@IVOrganic ok so my 10-12 is way too much, thanks!

[@Litlroe]

How can I get a cutting?

[@graniteridgegreens6278]

So Charles is this just a US offer, I tried the discount and fig to Canada but it wouldn't work?? Let Us Canadians know, Thanks

[@IVOrganic]

Ken Verrall It may work- but no guarantees. Write your request in the comments before you checkout- and if it cannot be fulfilled, someone will contact you. But, the offer is supposed to be USA only. But, we love Canada too- and hope to be in warehouses there by Spring 2020! Charles 🌱👍

[@graniteridgegreens6278]

@@IVOrganic Ok thanks Charles, I wasn't sure if transporting across borders would be a issue. Funny thing with this border cross contamination, I can see other countries restriction but ours is just a line on the map that doesn't restrict anyone other than humans. Birds, bugs and the rest of nature flow freely! Kind of a oxymoron. You know 1st time I viewed one of your videos I thought, Oh who is this fast talking salesman but then noticed the flow of free information and the energy you put forth loving everything botanious (look a new word Lol) and I enjoy the knowledge you put forward. Hey My middle name is Charles after my Grandfather, great name and vaccinated with a gramophone needle also. Cheers

This is Roger Castillo of 639 Las Brisas Dr. , Mesquite , Texas I am watching all you videos about your 10 in 1 fig trees could you pls spare me some of your variety figs I would like to collect some figs and plant it in my back yard. Thank you and God bless you.

[@daddydustinmiller5150]

How much potash can I put on my avocado tree?

[@IVOrganic]

Daddy Dustin Miller What’s the source? Wood ash? Regardless, use sparingly if it does not come from a package with specific application instructions- as wood ash (for instance) can change the soil pH. So, as they say, ‘less is more.’ Also, don’t just add potash- apply a balanced organic fertilizer when feeding your avocado & other plants/ trees. I hope this helps!? Charles 🌱👍

[@daddydustinmiller5150]

Yes ashes. 😝 ok will use avocado fert. Don’t wanna take any chances altering the pH. Thanks 🙏🏻. Love your videos and products!!

[@felizarias2450]

Is that a bunny?

[@IVOrganic]

Feliz Arias Yep- I’ve got two! 🐰🐰

[@beebob1279]

You always make me nervous with that razor blade. My buddy who is a master gardener talked to me about grafting and tree damage in nature. He said that there is no reason to paint the open wounds on a tree because it will heal itself. They do that in nature. However, after you showed the insect in the dead wood feeding downward into the main part of the tree, I'll paint my prunings.

[@suhaalnaji5459]

Can you sell me cuttings for meyer lemon or machintosh apple ?

[@martdaniels3196]

Do you graft the different varies into the main root stoch?

No grafting tips 15 minutes in. More like watching a cheesy infomercial

Too much talk. I can't continue watching.

[@cesarouano1411]

Very bad technique in cutting the scion. Not a good demonstration...
