I just found your channel. I’ve never enjoyed gardening before, but I’m inspired by what you do. I’m in my 50s and just started gardening…..thanks to you!

[@TheKiwiGrower]

Oh what a cool comment. So glad I could inspire you to get into it :)

Lanell, dont feel bad, i too am in my 50's and just started getting interested in gardening, grafting, and other growing pastimes. Dunno why i didnt start when i was younger lol.

Amazing! A person actually has progress updates for their 'how to' gardening video... and a 2nd video with even further down the road. What do you know.. someone that actually knows what they are doing! 🙂 Thank you for taking the very long time it took to put this together. You are appreciated! 🌱

[@TheKiwiGrower]

Thanks so much :)

[@celiamangrai7015]

Watched a few of your videos and I really appreciate that the time and effort you put in on each. I also appreciate that you put the XX weeks/months update including the overall weeks/months for more clarity. Thank you and keep the great videos coming...

I’m lucky to have a loquat tree overhanging into my backyard and every summer I get Atleast 80 fruit just from the small section that overhangs (with permission of course)

I’ve always wanted to learn grafting, thank you for this tutorial, it looks so easy!❤️

[@src3360]

Im in florida and have a huge loquat tree on my property that I planted in 2010. It was a teeny tiny little thing and now it is absolutely enormous!! I make loquat jelly every year and give out. I pick so much fruit and im probably only getting half of the fruit it produces. The animals and birds enjoy the rest. The only thing I do is water it. Its wet here where I live but I make sure I keep it watered well. No fertilizer. You can use the leaves for tea. Its pretty good. It has a light floral green taste and aroma. I use fresh leaves and dry some too. 😎😎

[@zacelliot8029]

Thank you for putting so much time and effort into putting this video together! 👍

[@TheKiwiGrower]

No worries! 😊

[@chel-lalasveganmania]

That looks like something I could do. Thanks never considered doing something so hard core. Just cutting the top off a perfectly good looking tree. All that work could die over the weekend. Thanks for the months of waiting and editing. Nice video.

[@claudiob.7528]

Thank you for another great video! This trees remind me of my childhood in the brazilian countryside.

No worries :). They do look like such tropical trees ay

[@Betty-qd8st]

Ooh wow, what a fantastic idea . That may actually work , the branch is Mature so it has the fruiting hormones already. Amazing! ❤️

[@jamiemiller8850]

I've been binging your videos, I discovered your videos after watching Garden Answer while I was researching perennials for my bee and butterfly garden. It's so cool to see a kiwi doing these kinds of videos, it makes it so much easier to compile accurate information for our area 😀 my partner and I just bought our first home and are lucky enough to have a couple of mature fruit trees, including a loquat, I'm so excited for it to fruit!

[@TheKiwiGrower]

Thanks for the support Jamie. Congrats on your guys first home! A bonus to have some mature fruit trees too :)

[@planterbanter]

Such a good video mate, with awesome results!! Grafting is good fun

[@TheKiwiGrower]

Thanks mate!

[@lawntofoodforest]

Just what I needed. I didn’t know seedlings take so long to fruit. I have one store bought grafted loquat and several others grown from seed. I’ve only grafted an orange before, keen to get into this further.

[@hundragant]

I had no idea you could do that to plants. Crazy.

[@chateaxublue]

This was so informative. My loquat trees just sprouted. This video will be useful when it comes time to grafting it using the mature tree I took the seeds from. Wish I'd seen it earlier to grow it from a cutting 🤣😂🤣

[@TheKiwiGrower]

Haha all good! You'll probably end up with a better root system from seed anyway :)

[@freddy29228]

Great videos, I watched your first one and found your comment about grafting. it looks easy enough but a lot of patience. Waiting for growth. Wonderful, love plants! 🌳🌳🌳

[@patrickkyu7241]

Great video. I did the same way as yours but I covered the whole stem with plastic bag. I think It helps the grafting heal faster. After 4 weeks, I saw 4 or 5 leaves came out.

[@richardparham1784]

Another great video. Can’t wait to see the growth. 👍

Cool! One of my favourite fruits since kid and the first tree I planted from seed. Now I really enjoy the scent of its flowers in winter, but never thought of grafting... Good luck in spring!

[@TheKiwiGrower]

That’s cool! I forgot the flowers have a nice scent. Will have to remember that for when these flower :)

[@lifeofintention4711]

Thanks for the video once again! I always appreciate that you take the time in your planning to show the long term success of your experiments in gardening! It was really nice to see what the graft looked like after that time too, so we can compare (as they sometimes look pretty lumpy and ugly). I have been trying here (South Australia) to graft avocados this year - up to my 6th attempt. It looks like one of my older goes is working after nearly 3 months, finally budding!!! Keep up the great work and enjoying the blessing of time in the garden!

[@alexandreduarte1798]

My grandmother taught me grafting, this year, and the process was almost exacly the same except we used a kind of black tar to seal the grraft from the water

[@bramtencate2170]

Planted some seeds outside in the Netherlands (from seed out of fruits from Spain) now 3 years old and doing great. Never expected that they would actually grow over here.

[@TobyJin]

Thanks for showing us your technique, you must be pretty skilled at grafting considering you've been getting a 100% success rate with all your grafts.

[@TheKiwiGrower]

Thanks Toby, still lots to learn but it’s a fun thing to do I reckon. The plum grafts I did took well and were growing but got rejected and died about 6 months later, so have had a few fails. All part of it though :)

[@TobyJin]

@@TheKiwiGrower The grafts can fail after 6 months? Or did the graft struggle to make it through the winter?

Amazing I tasted a loquat for the first time today and I loved it! So sweet and so much taste. I picked them from a tree in Portugal. I wanna graft my own now but am afraid the Netherlands are to cold for these trees.

[@4ll1d0155m0k3w33d]

You make my tree grow.

[@lauren8627]

Those trees are brilliant. I wish I could grow them at my house, but it's too cold. If I'm in the city in fruiting season it's the best thing walking by a tree on the street and grabbing a snack! A few streets have them on the footpath too (council planted), so it's totally fair game! My Dad used to use electrical tape to graft apple trees when we had an orchard. So if that's all you have lying around at home it's probably fine!

[@TheKiwiGrower]

Hey Lauren, that’s awesome. It’s a bit like that here too, you sometimes find the occasional tree planted along a footpath etc. :)

[@johnwilliams2711]

Hey Lauren! Loquats are pretty cold resistant. They grow well where I am (like weeds) and we get -8 Celsius usually over winter.

Thanks Kiwi grower. Just started getting into your videos. I like your style. I'd like to see a video of grafting compared to air layering. Which would produce better or faster results? If you haven't heard of air layering, it's best started in early spring. Hope you'll look into it. Thanks again.

[@TuppyMSM]

The Loquat Tree in front of my house fell down yesterday because of a severe storm 😔 It was matured and already fruited for a while, we used to get lots from it. Loquats are really common in my city though, hope to get another tree soon.

Hi, I want to ask a couple of questions regarding the grafting method. Can I use the same method on all my fruit trees? Can I do this method on an avocado tree that is already planted in the ground? When I do my grafting can I use an avocado tree from another pit or must I buy a new avocado pear tree to graft onto the one I already planted in the garden? The final question is, we have frost during winter do need to protect my avocado tree from frost and what kind of methods do I use? Regard Michelle
