Rose Grafting Technique
You may not be familiar with the introduction of rose-related plants, rose grafting technique. Next, the site editor will introduce it for netizens.
For rose grafting technique, many articles are not detailed enough, and some新手 (novice) flower enthusiasts can't understand it. I saw a nice rose grafting technique written by a Japanese flower enthusiast, so I organized it for reference. Actually, the advantage of rose grafting over cutting is faster growth and longer lifespan, but the disadvantage is that there will be slight degeneration in the variety.
Let's talk about rose grafting technique:
I. Preparation Tools
1. Grafting knife, pruning shears, gloves, tape, pencil, label, scion, rootstock (usually wild rose or rose can be used for rootstock). There are many tools, but actually a razor blade and a craft knife are enough.
II. Rootstock Treatment
1. According to experience, if the rootstock needs to be dug in the wild, it can be stored for 2-3 days. If the rootstock has a well-developed root system, it can be divided into two parts. The place where the hand is pointing can be divided.
2. If unfortunately encounter root tumors, they should be completely abandoned and not reused by simply removing the tumor part.
3. Cut off 2-3 centimeters above the roots. Even if there are new buds on the branches, they should be cut without mercy.
III. Scion Treatment
1. Cut off the thorns with scissors.
2. Determine the top and bottom direction of the scion based on the bud points and leaf marks. The bud points are on top and the leaf marks are below. This is an important method to distinguish the reverse of the scion.
3. Cut the scion as follows, make a longitudinal cut of 1-1.3 centimeters to expose the white xylem, but do not cut too deep. After cutting, place the scion in a plate of water to prevent drying.
IV. Second Treatment of Rootstock
1. According to Figure 2, make a longitudinal cut in the rootstock, and be careful not to cut your hand.
V. Inserting the Rootstock into the Scion Cut
The scion and rootstock must be perfectly combined, or the grafting will fail due to nutrient (G-Y) issues. The scion can deviate from the rootstock by a maximum of 3 millimeters.
VI. Tying, Marking, Transplanting
1. You must use grafting tape, not regular tape. Tie it firmly from bottom to top, avoiding slipping and misalignment.
2. If it cannot be transplanted immediately, it should be stored with wet newspaper to prevent drying. Do not use chemical fertilizers and keep the root soil clean.
VII. Planting
After planting, it can be stored in a greenhouse or use a plastic bag to create a simple greenhouse, stored in a sunny place. Keep the temperature above 10 degrees Celsius.
About 7-10 days, we will see the buds gradually swell. If in a place with a temperature of 5-6 degrees Celsius, it will take about 1 month for the buds to grow. Beyond this time, if the scion branches wrinkle and turn black, it means the grafting has failed. When the leaves are unfolding, be careful not to have too much moisture in the保温 bag (insulation bag). Maintain a certain humidity and temperature in the greenhouse. After March, with the warming of temperatures, the bag can be completely opened, but be cautious of morning and evening frosts. After the seedlings stabilize, a certain amount of liquid fertilizer can be applied.
