Is it possible to graft on a 1 year 1 rootstock? I'm not talking about bench grafting not field grafting. I can get some rooted C3309 and I think I once read...
Hi Don, Maybe not the easiest thing to do. The trick is going to be getting the graft union to callus without overly stimulating the rest of the vine. You...
I've had 100% success bench grafting to 1-year rooted roostock, its the way I always do it. Last year I did 25 vines and they grew up to 9' the first year. I...
Yes, I graft onto rooted rootstock often, just did 25 and have another 100 to do yet. I normally plant them just after grafting, bury them in a mound of soil...
Reminder, we're starting to get registrations coming in and some of the more popular seminars do have quotas. Things are progressing very well for this...
Thank you all for the great grafting info. In my area - Keuka Lake - Finger Lakes NY - cutting wood is not that hard to come by but rootstock is. Those...
I just purchased 6 Zinfandel vines, and am now wondering if I should be kicking myself in the rear for doing so. Wichita, Kansas (Zone 6) Does anyone know if...

I'm in TN, zone 6b, and planted 6 Primitivo (Zinfandel) in 2000. I have 1 struggling vine left. -8 degrees was very hard on them, I think much less would...

I have two rows (Chardonel and Traminette) of vines I would like to replace with better varities for my area (St Croix and Seyval). I have read that pulling...
I've used a sort of replacement system that MIGHT work for you, though I've never done it for a full vineyard, just short portions of rows. I grafted pieces...

They are talking about 'Grape Replant Disease (or Syndrom)'. Yes it will affect vines replanted in to the soil where you removed the previous vines. Common ...
George, What do you mean when you say " head train your vinifera right on the ground"? I have thought of using something like rose cones in the past and...
