6. After the grafting what to do?
Based on my own experience, one of the largest reasons folks seem to have
trouble with grafting persimmons is lack of aftercare. I have to check my
persimmon grafts almost on a daily basis to keep rootstock shoots below the
graft rubbed off, otherwise the rootstock exports all its energy into
pushing these growths, rather than callusing and pushing growth from the
grafted scion.
