- Wrap a small piece of tape around the cut end to prevent drying out.
- Make a lateral cut on the rootstock branch.
- Lift up the bark on both sides of the cut.
- Insert the scion wood into the lifted bark area.
- Wrap with tape to secure and protect the graft union.
Bud Grafting
- Prepare a bud by making an incision below it with a disinfected knife.
- Lift up the bark gently to create space for inserting the bud.
- Insert the bud into the lifted bark area, ensuring it fits snugly.
- Wrap with tape to secure and protect the bud.
