Grafts of what?  Optimum temperatures vary for different species;  38 sounds 
reasonable for apples, but stone fruits need a higher temp, 60 sounds like 
optimal for apricots (but don't quote me, as I don't have any references 
handy, so I might be off a few degrees).
 
I would like to hear/see/read any recent detailed info/studies on the subject 
of optimum temps for callusing.

Subject: [NAFEX] temp to hold grafts at to callous


I am getting ready to do bench grafts.I thought you had to hold them around 
38 for two weeks to callous.I huge nursery from the west coast told me to 
hold them at 60 degrees for 10 days to get the sap flowing so they would 
heal.Any inputs??   thanks, skip s. zone 5
