Philip,
Thanks for posting your digital photos.  It makes it much easier to
understand how you do those grafts.  With digital cameras becoming more
popular, I hope that more NAFEX people set up illustrated webpages to share
their knowledge.
-Mark

Subject: RE: [NAFEX] Persimmon transplant and grafting questions.


My experience persimmon grafting:

http://members.fortunecity.com/pjsauber/HangingGraft.htm

cleft grafting prior to bud break - no luck

cleft grafting after bud break - some luck

t-budding after bark slips and before 90F weather - very good

hanging bud in fall with weather below 90F and bark not slipping - 8 out of
10

I'm glad someone reminded me again, yesterday I did two chip buds on dormant
wood. I'm waiting for bud break before trying again.  I have 10 rootstocks
to experiment with this year bought from Womacks.
