grafting, can it be done or is it a science fiction?
Somebody knowledgeable in grafting probably will laugh at this, but,
please, dont. Anyway, here is what I want I know and what I want to do: What I know can be doneeven I have never done that) make pears grow on apple tree by attaching a branch from pear tree to the trunk or spot on apple tree wher the aple tree branch is coming from. Now questions. #1. Will this scenarioo work? I cut out 10-15 cm of the skin from the branch of apple tree; just the skin not going deep in the wood. Then I take apple leaves; water, blend it in the blender a little bit until I have a paste. Put this paste in the pouch made from cooton towel. Put in the pouch a seedling of apple tree with some soild soil. Make sure the seedlings go thru the hole in the pouch as if it would look when you buy it from the store; just instead of the pot it is in the pouch. Place the pouch on the top of tree "wound". Tie it up to the branch with wet piece of the same towel. Tie it up. Keep it moist. Can I expect the new apple tree penetrate the branch, fuse with it, and starting to grow? #2. You probably ask why all this so complicated, when it can be done much easier with regular grafting. Reason for that is that, if the answer to question # 1 is "yes"; what I really want is to try instead of planting apple tree; what I want is to try something like plant a tomato plant on the branch of equaliptyus tree. Now it is probably from the realm of scince fiction or is it possible? |
