Do you have any info on fig trees
I would definitely have neighbors call the police on me taking scions for grafting because I'm autistic and ADHD so I look weird and people take that as suspicious behavior, I was stopped by a neighbor in another neighborhood just taking a walk and he said that some neighbors actually called the police on me and was on the road in this community walking and taking pictures of plants, their were no no trespassing signs and no gates on this community, and this one neighbor who claimed that the neighbors called the police was recording me with his smartphone and telling me to say my name and address to help the police because he said that he was talking to the police.
8:24 WTF you guys have ditch asparagus?!?! we don't get that here… Lucky..
This was interesting. I can hardly wait for you to graft. That is what I want to try.
Really cool video. Looking forward to seeing what the results are once they produce fruit
Would this work with vintage pear trees?
Must be nice to be able to drive around and find apple trees in ditches 😁
Yes looking forward to the next video the grafting on rootstock!!!
Where do you get your root stalks from? Did you order them online or is it a company local to you. I live in Central Wisconsin.
How to get scionwood: Sneak up on a cold, unsuspecting tree, go Edward Scissorhands on all the new growth. Splice onto existing stump, and voila!
This is interesting , we purchased 40 acres near North Branch, Mi, about 30 acres is wooded with an abandoned apple orchard the trees are 100+ years old. How do you figure out what kind of apple trees they are? Does the state offer DNA to the public?
Thanks
What could I graft an Asian pear on to? The parent tree is dying but does still have live parts,I'd love to try to save its genes.
Loved the video. I will be following you along on this journey.
Really interesting Luke. Thank you for the information. Take care. By the way I thought that the bigger the root graft, the better. What about the root stock?
Are there any conservative groups that can check these areas for endangered plants and trees and dig them up and move them to a nature conservatory?
Thank you! I'm just starting my grafting journey. I have ordered my root stalk & will be collecting my scion wood in the next couple weeks here in Kansas. I'm just doing 10 to start with. My grandmother had the absolute best apple tree for baking & fresh eating. No one in the family is sure what the variety is & she has been gone many years. The tree is still producing & has to be older than me (I'm 67). So for sentimental reasons I'm hoping to continue with the variety. My aunt still owns the property & has given me her blessing to take all the clippings I need.
Hoe do you know what type of apple you are cutting to graft?
Did you label after each cutting?
This entire process is fascinating to me. I am really enjoying this series. You’ve opened up a whole new understanding of apple propagation.
Abandoned farms. Goldmine.
Please please please bring back red Ruben, basil as a repeat offering on your website. It’s my favorite basil and so a few companies have it for sale. I think only two other companies offer that I have found maybe three. It sold out before my payday.
