RE: ONE STEP CLOSER TO TASTING THE FRUIT OF MY LABOR

in #food7 years ago

Very exciting to see your grafts coming alive.

Mind if I share something I am little proud of?

This spring, I made my first graft. It was on my apple tree.

I did cut off that scion a bit shorter after I took this photo, hoping that might support the buds better.

Not saying I did the greatest job, but I gave it my best effort.

Anyways, just wanted to share, because I think growing fruit trees is a really fun hobby, and I simply love the concept of growing my own healthy sweet fruits at home.

If anyone is interested in getting started grafting your own fruit tree from scratch, I made a post about my recent experience, you might appreciate called So you think you can grow an apple tree? There will be a follow-up post soon about planting a new apple tree, and the graft I made pictured above.

Hope you don't mind the shameless plug. I think it is related though.
