T-budding tutorial

Thanks fruitnut I will make it a priority to do a few today. I have an unidentified pear that’s scions are very easy to graft so I tried some buds from that one. This is what I did first and cut a couple of non dormant buds.


Next I prepared the rootstock by cutting a T as you instructed

Peeled the T I cut with the razor back a bit and inserted the bud

I left all the wood behind from the bud

Taped it up tight.

Should I wrap the graft area in parafilm? I did wrap the area with parafilm it made sense to me to do it.
