Selection of scion and rootstock

Generally speaking, the mother tree of green peach should choose strong plants without diseases and pests and good quality. In addition, the strong branches newly born in that year should be selected as scions. The rootstock selected for grafting is generally Hickory

Specific methods of green peach grafting

The grafting of green peach is generally carried out by bud grafting or branch grafting. For budding in summer, first cut the bud pieces, peel the stem of the rootstock, and then cut the scion, that is, the leaves, leaving the petiole. Cut it with a knife under the bud of the scion. Note that the inner side of the bud should have a wooden layer, and the stem should be three to five centimeters away from the ground. Then select the vertical part on the north side of the trunk, cut off the bark, and insert the bud into the rootstock. At this time, it is particularly important to note that there is no gap at the cutting part of the rootstock, Therefore, the lower part of the bud can be wound with tape for several circles to firmly combine and prevent air drying

Budding time of green peach

August is the best grafting time in the north, and July is the best in the south

Management of green peach after grafting

Whether the grafted plant survives can be determined more than ten days after the bud grafting of green peach. If the petiole is yellow and falls off, it means that the plant has survived. If it turns black, it has not survived. After the surviving seedlings sprout, the adhesive tape shall be removed and the rootstock shall be cut. After the plant sprouts, the rootstock germination must be erased, and then the fertilizer shall be applied in time. It is best to apply compound fertilizer, so as to promote the lignification of new scion shoots, so as to enhance the cold resistance. In addition, in order to prevent and control pests, 2000 times dimethoate solution can be sprayed< span>
