Hana's grafting 2022/2023

Post by Hanazono »

I use 15 cm length off-shoots of Pereskiopsis as grafting stocks.
4 off-shoots were cut and set for the rooting in this morning. I will graft seedlings 4 days later.

I use small devices for the preparation of stocks.

1. A bar with 15 cm wire
Since Pereskiopsis has fine spines, 15cm length is measured by this device and cut an off-shoot bit longer by a scissors.

2. Cutting-bar
Recut off-shoot accurately by a knife using this cuttug-bar. Red-line is 15cm from the end.

I grafted 4 seedlings in this morning.
Scions are ariocarpus fissuratus cv godzilla, 2~3 mm in diameter.
The grafting completion needs 10 more days.

I grafted 4 more godzilla seedlings in this morning.
I have planned to graft 24 in total and so I have to graft 16 more.
Unfortunately Pereskiopsis is not vigorous enough currently and so I have to wait available stocks.

The grefting process for 4 scions which were grafted on 7th was completed in this morning.
The result was very bad. I am sure 2 are taken but other are not.
Water was kept on the bottom of plastic box but the temperature was not high enough to evaporate.
I think a lack of humidity in the box made this result.

I will restart grafting when the temperature became higher.

The grafting process of 3 godgilla seedlings was completed in this morning. They were repotted into 90 mm square pots.
I grafted 24 godzilla seedlings plus 2 extras in total in this season.
The grafting result in this season was not good. I could make more than 95% success rate before but it was around 80% in this season.
Because of above reason, I made 2 extras.

12 pots are possible to accommodate in a plastic pad. They are in 2 pad.
Pots are called "Olive pot" in here and depth is 180 mm.

The photo is grafted 24 seelings of ariocarpus fissuratus cv godzilla in 2 plastic pads.

3 seelings of Ariocarpus retusus v furfuraceus cv Suguri cauliflower were grafted in this morning. I planned to graft 6 seedlings but I could graft just 3. Since seedlings were very small, I could not keep my concentration for enough time grafting 6.
I will graft remained 3 tomorrow.

I graft seedlings onto Pereskiopsis offshoot cuttings. They are very vigorous and pushing many offshoots up currently.

The attached photo is Pereskiopsis with many offshoots.

The grafting process of 6 seedlings which were grafted 9th and 10th in this month was completed in this morning.
Unfortunately one of them was failed. Since seedlings were small, the result was not too bad.
It seems scions have grown a bit during the grafting process.

The photo is one of them, Ariocarpus retusus v furfuraceus cv Suguri cauliflower.
