Grafting and Air Layering in one step to propagate several plants from one rootstock

[@kkme7]

I showed this and the chip-bud grafting video to my 84 year old grandfather. His eyes lit up and he got really excited and chatty. He said that these were interesting videos about 5 times, which is rare and high praise. Thanks a lot, your videos are great, informative and gave me a touching moment with my family!

[@JSacadura]

Having recently lost a dear family member your words meant a lot to me and i'm glad i helped in some small way to your family moment. Thanks very much for your comment.

Bro your living the dream

[@joshholschuh1847]

I would pay to attend your grafting class

[@linnite_]

Thank u this was helpful for my exam

[@Bluebirdiran]

You are so Profesional and skilful that the only thing that remains to be emphasized is the date that you do a graft or airlayer and the date that some results should be expected. I know you do indicate these in some videos but I think you should bold these in every video. Knowing when to do something is of utmost importance and when to expect result is even more so. Thank you brother.

[@JSacadura]

I appreciate the feedback. You're right and if you check my last video you can see that I included those dates in every graft. - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZ-Wd6mCoJejoJI

What a wonderful video! I plan to air layer some fruit trees in the near future so I learned about that. I always was curious about grafting so after air layering why not learn this too, seems like I found the proper channel to do so 😊

[@joshholschuh1847]

My first airlayer i potted up into something small enough to keep for bonsai and it kept rolling in the soil(i used the round ball airlayers and it makes such a smooth root ball that it dont anchor well. I didn't have enough room to support it with a stake

When air layering pear trees, is it a good idea to do this once it has already leaved out in spring or before it does? Also, how long do I need to leave it there before checking it and cutting the new tree and roofs off the main tree??? Thanks so much!

Hello again I have another question what time of season is the best if I wanted to Air layering a guava tree and then plant it

[@jhawka11]

Have you, or anyone you know of, ever used copper hydroxide on the liners for your air layering container? Do you think it would create a better root ball?

[@JSacadura]

Sorry, no. I have never done it or heard that anyone has used it for that purpose. I really don't see why it would result in a better root ball.

[@ajones8699]

Jhawka Is it not just a fungicide? Are you aware of other benefits?

[@tanweermir6997]

dear sir what material should be filled in the container for airlayering

[@JSacadura]

I use a light potting mix but other earth mixes can be used or even other substrates, like coco coir. It's important that the medium lets the roots breathe, so it must not be too dense when wet.

[@josemiguelmartins1712]

boa tarde em que altura do ano se faz a enxertia de citrinos?, bem como a estaquia de citrinos em que altura se pode fazer e como se deve fazer? Obrigado

[@JSacadura]

As técnicas de enxerto com mais sucesso em citrinos são habitualmente realizadas nos meses de Primavera-Verão. A estaquia é menos utilizada pois, para crescerem bem, a maioria dos citrinos precisa de ser enxertada num porta-enxerto resistente. Se estiver numa zona em que algumas variedades de citrinos crescem bem nas suas próprias raízes, pode fazer estacas no final da primavera, por exemplo, mas prefira a alporquia à estaquia (garante melhores resultados).

[@josemiguelmartins1712]

@@JSacadura não querer ser chato a alporquia é feita em que época? Muito obrigado

[@JSacadura]

A melhor época é a Primavera, pois o crescimento ativo, com bom tempo, leva à produção rápida de novas raízes. Mas pode ser feita ao longo do ano, desde que a árvore não entre em dormência (apesar do desenvolvimento de raízes poder levar muito tempo - vários meses - em períodos menos favoráveis).

What is the best time of year to start air-layer? I’m winter while trees are dormant or in summer?

[@JSacadura]

The best season is when the trees are actively growing (Spring in my zone). Check my latest video on the subject for more tips - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnismJKDrMd-iJI

[@jaswinderbatth4440]

Bro Please Tell Me about Soil ? Please

[@JSacadura]

Use any good light potting mix to root or any inert medium like coco coir and don't overwater. If you use a heavy mix that holds too much water the roots might rot.

[@Atimatimukti]

Uma sugestão, dar as datas certas para cada método e para cada espécie. Por exemplo, a borbulha nas laranjeiras é feita na mesma altura que os pessegueiros? Muito bons estes videos, obrigada

[@JSacadura]

Este vídeo não é especificamente sobre enxertia por isso escapou-me esse aspeto. Quer a enxertia, quer a alporquia, foram feitas no início da Primavera (Março). Na maioria das espécies, laranjeiras incluídas, a enxertia de borbulha faz-se um pouco mais para a frente até ao final da Primavera, início do Verão. Neste vídeo sobre chip-budding em figueiras ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKfdkGqumLyEabs ) estão as datas em que cada enxerto foi feito (Março e Abril, a maioria). Este ano tenho intenção de fazer mais alguns vídeos sobre vários métodos de enxertia em várias espécies e o aspeto da melhor data para fazer cada um não será esquecido.

[@Atimatimukti]

@@JSacadura mais uma vez, obrigada pela resposta. A minha grande duvida é sobre a borbulha no pessegueiro uma vez que todas as variedades entram em floração muito cedo. Como fazer borbulha no final da Primavera se já todas as flores abriram e o pessegueiro tem até já fruto? Fico a aguardar por esse video, obrigada mais uma vez.

[@workwillfreeyou]

Can a Air Layered plant go directly into the ground? Thanks, Jim.

[@JSacadura]

If the rootball is well developed and the soil conditions are not extreme, you can plant it directly. Be sure to reduce the number of leaves so they can be sustained by the roots (too many leaves can't be supported by a small rootball).

[@boxingfanazM.O.B]

@@JSacadura what kind of tape do you use? When grafting one branch to another?

[@mykvass]

will it fail if you graft in rainy weather ? and water gets inside

[@JSacadura]

Rain can pretty much ruin any graft. It started raining when i was grafting the old pear tree to change varieties and that can easily affect the outcome of some of the grafts.

[@sergiugavrila849]

Can I do air layering at some kind of pear tree? It's a variety that I want to save because I only have two grafted branches in a pears tree which is another variety. very good video

[@JSacadura]

Yes, you can. Remember that most fruit trees (pears included) are not propagated this way. Not that they are difficult to air layer, but because they, usually, don't grow well in their own roots, so they are grafted to resistant rootstocks instead.

[@jorgepelegrini7286]

Hola de Argentina: Muy interesantes sus videos, la preguna es : en que epoca del año se realizan los acodos aereos (Invierno, otoño,primavera o verano) la pregunta se la formulo ya que tengo una magnolia japonica o tulipanera y muchas amistades me piden que les haga una. He probado por esquejes en invierno y no funciona, pero veo que su metodo con los envases de manteca funcionan muy bien pero no tengo claro en que epoca del año se realiza.Muchas gracias por su atencion un gran saludo.--

[@JSacadura]

Hola, Jorge. La mejor época para los acodos aéreos en cuando la planta tiene su máximo periodo de crecimiento (cuando las condiciones ambientales son más favorables). Por norma es la Primavera, pero se pueden hacer acodos durante todo el año, desde que la planta mantenga sus hojas y la savia siga en circulación.

[@Zennofobic]

where do you get your background music, you have good taste

[@JSacadura]

Thanks. All the tracks are available in the KZbin Audio Library and they can be used without copyright issues. You just have to spend some time searching the better tracks as lots of them are not that good.

[@Zennofobic]

agreed. You have a winning combination, direct to the point videos and decent background music. Keep up the good work, enjoying your videos.

[@radj4719]

Liked and subscribed, can you suggest a good grafting knife possibly an ebay link or other thanks

[@JSacadura]

Do a search for "Victorinox grafting knife". They do very good grafting knives, like the one i show in this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmaXYoOAq5amrJI - that you probably can find at Amazon. Opinel are also nice knives. The larger one i am using is only made in Portugal . Check this forum discussion where i posted a few links to places who have them available - growingfruit.org/t/grafting-figs-video-chip-budding-and-t-budding/12176/12?u=jsacadura

You don't see raffia used these days. I like rubber as it doesn't girdle..

[@JSacadura]

Thanks for your comment, A jones. Over here raffia is still widely used and available (unlike rubber ties, if you can believe it - i have to buy them in the internet, from Spain, if i really want them). So, i' have grown accustomed to it and love it. It's thin and can go around the lower buds in the scion, without covering or destroying them. It can also help correct a few grafting mistakes, being able to 'pull' and join two end pieces that were apart, helping them to form a cambium more easily and, with some grafting techniques, like bark grafts, rubber ties are just not strong enough to do a good job (at least that is my opinion). Furthermore, raffia is strong enough to support the scion, even if it's knocked by a clumsy arm, a bird uses it as a perch or a strong wind tries to break it down. To me, these are advantages that make up nicely for the potential girdling problem it might have, in some cases, if you forget to make a cut when checking the grafts, after a couple of months (which is a rare occurrence, as the raffia, being a natural material, tends to break down before any girdling has a chance to occur ). But, i say in the video that you can use other materials to tie the graft, like tape and rubber ties, so in the end, it's the grafter choice. Thanks again for your comment.

[@ajones8699]

I used to just use parafilm, but last year I bought bands and I doubt I will ever not use them in the future. I imagine the results with bands and raffia are very similar. But I think bands are easy to use,but that does not help if they are difficult to get.what part of the world are you in?

[@JSacadura]

I'm in Portugal. The results are almost identical between both materials but if i want to use rubber bands I can only get them through internet from Spain or another country. Don't know a single store that has them over here. Using just parafilm is risking it, as the graft is not secure enough to resist most situations that occur and that will ruin it.

[@ajones8699]

Finding grafting materials is harder than it should be.

[@JSacadura]

You are quite right. For instance, there is simply no way of finding Grafting Parafilm over here (in Spain you can find the Parafilm M that i find less convenient to use and is slightly different (and more expensive). 3 years ago i bought a box of 6 rolls of Grafting Parafilm in the UK. Last year, i had to bought it in the USA!! as the UK store didn't have it any more. And, for me, Parafilm is essential when we talk about successful grafts and even successful rooting (i can't think of rooting my fig cuttings without it anymore). If i go to the local agricultural specialized chains they only have Buddy Tape (and not a very good one, in ridiculous small rolls of 5 meters and they cost 5 times the price i can get Parafilm for, even from abroad, including shipping costs). It's not easy, as you say, but if we want great results we have to use the right materials.
