Описание к видео Apple Tree Grafting For Beginners - Learn How To Graft | Includes 6 Months of Updates

Join me as I create a multi variety apple tree from scratch and explain apple tree grafting for beginners. I'll take you through how to graft an apple tree from start to finish so you can learn how to graft a fruit tree at home. I'll be sharing the whole process of grafting including multiple updates of these fruit tree grafts right up until 6 months old.
I'm a beginner grafter myself, but I hope I can explain it in a way where you can follow along and have your own grafting success. It's a really fascinating and useful gardening skill to have which will enable you to graft your own fruit trees and get the satisfaction of creating a fruit tree with multiple varieties on it.
I used the whip and tongue grafting technique on my apple tree rootstock and grafted on scion from a Granny Smith Apple, Monty's Surprise Apple and a Gala apple. I'll be showing you the tools you need for grafting, how to make the whip and tongue grafting cuts and how to line up the cambium layers. I'll show you how to use grafting tape and talk more about other grafting information to answer the question, what is grafting?

Here's a great book all about grafting a wide range of fruit and nut trees:

I seriously do hope this video helps you graft your own tree and I'd love to hear what you thought of the video and if you're going to follow along and have a go yourself. Good luck with your grafting, and no pressure - its a bit of fun and a great way to learn more about plants and fruit trees. If it doesn't work the first time, your rootstock should still survive and you can try again! You don't have to be good at it straight away, so just like any skill, practice and you'll improve your grafting skills overtime! :)
