Great ! Thank you!

Great....I did this yesterday. My peaches and my blackberries.

I only asked because he explains in the video why...

[helgamite1]

Do all rasberry plants through out suckers for future crops. Meaning are some plants ginetically altered so they stay as a single plant. I have purchased numerous varieties from catalogs and I would like to weed out and only grow a couple varieties from only a few select plants but I do not see any runners coming from the varieties I like?

why would you cut a newly sprouted (1 yr) peach tree and graft it with the same tree?

[podboq2]

@edv177 Did you even watch the video? He took a cutting from a tree with known-good fruit, and grafted it onto a seedling peach. So it'll fruit clones from the good tree, but have a strong, un-hybridized rootstock.

@podboq2 I'm not a tree expert like yourself, i didn't know there were "known good fruit trees"? yes i did watch the video

what kind of wax are you using? Is it normal wax?

[skateboy159]

@iazzy50 i say its probly bee wax

this was super fascinating, I feel like I learned so much... thank you!

I have a question maybe you can answer for me: if I dig out raspberry plant offshoots that have already created leaves, and attempt to propagate those, will that not be as successful? I work at a school garden, and our plant has cast offshoots into so many other planter boxes and I'd love to propagate some of them. Thanks!

NICE WORK!

I think we're using peach trees planted last year as the root stock. I don't know much about the plants yet. We haven't done open source enterprise research yet.
