Methods for Grafting Grapes onto Jujube Trees
An article sharing knowledge about grafting grapes onto jujube trees and the highest survival rate grafting methods in the field of green plants and flowers. Next, the editor will provide you with a detailed explanation.
Grapes are one of the fruits that everyone is very familiar with. However, due to work or family living environments, many people living in big cities rarely see what real grapevines look like, and even less do they have the chance to witness the grafting techniques and procedures of grapevines. Grafted grapevines produce more flowers and fruits. Let's take a look at the specific steps today.
The grafting time for grapes usually has two stages. About half a month before spring germination and from May to June when the branches are semi-woody. During these two stages, grapes are generally grafted using a cutting method, and the survival rate is very high. Let's talk about the operation process of grafting green branches of grapes. First, you need to select a good plant, trim the lateral branches to prepare the stock, and let it accumulate nutrients in advance.
When the scion is in hand, you can start grafting. The height of the stock is usually kept between 30 to 50 cm. Cut the smooth part of the stock internode with scissors, then make a vertical cut along the stock with a grafting knife, about 3 to 4 cm deep. Then cut the scion, preferably the same thickness as the stock with full bud points, one bud joint is enough, or two buds can also be used. Use the grafting knife to cut the lower part of the scion into a wedge shape, slightly longer than the stock cut by about 3mm (for a firm healing).
Then quickly insert it into the stock cut, align the cambium layers of the stock and scion (at least one side), with the upper end of the scion cut slightly protruding 2 or 3mm from the stock cut. Then secure and seal it with tape and plastic wrap, leaving the scion bud point exposed.

It is worth mentioning that a few leaves should be left below the stock cut to facilitate photosynthesis and nutrient production. However, no branches should be left, and after grafting, it should be checked frequently. If any bud points germinate or small branches grow out, they should be removed promptly to supply nutrients and moisture to the upper scion for quick survival and growth.
