Few misc. grafting questions
Posted: Mon Jul 08, 2019 1:10 am
1. What size pots do you generally put your Pereskiopsis in for grafting (when you actually graft on them, not when you're growing them).
2. Any blade/knife suggestions for doing seedlings? I was considering scalpels with replaceable heads, as I haven't quite found a sharp/cheap option I like yet.
3. If a graft fails do you just regraft onto that pereskiopsis stock, or give up and put it back into the grow area to make offshoots?
4. What's the best method for growing Hylocereus stock. Right now I have about 10 cuttings split between two 5gallon pots, they're all pushing out new pieces. Should i take off those pieces when they reach a proper height and use for grafting, or let it grow a couple long pieces then start taking offshoots? (really just share your methods here).
5. Should I split the Hylocereus into their own containers. I know if you're growing them big for fruit they each need their own huge pot, but just for grafting stock does it matter?
Thanks in advance!
