    Slow grafts or poor success?

    I am in the same boat this year with Scion only from Grin. I have 16 grafts in my garage. Only 3 of them are showing green int the buds and they have been grafted for a month. I have followed the same process are prior year. Mine have been grafted for a month now.

    Anyone else gone Bonkers?

    I got one from Cummins this year on P18. It is in a grow bag to go to camp, but I have been really tempted to plant at the house here.

    Northern Spy Disease Resistance - 1st hand experience

    Does anyone have any experience with Northern Spy in an area with a number of Cedars? I read online it is susceptible but not really sure what that means. I am looking at one for my house which has cedars within 200 yards. I currently have a small orchard of various pears, Franklin, Liberty...

    Replanting Question

    Thanks all for your help. I also decided with all the craziness to put my trees from Cummins Nursery in the garden too. I will just replant everything in fall when everything is hopefully less crazy. Appreciate the feedback.

    Replanting Question

    Hey all. I am a bit late to replant some of my apple trees I had going in my raised beds. They started to bud out already. Do you think it is safe to replant at this point or should I just wait until fall. These are some 1-2 year old trees but with everything going on in the world I haven't...

    Stark -Franklins

    It appears my Franklin came from Stark on B118. It had some leafing out below the graft line with the tell tale sign of the reddish leaves.

    CAR on new grafts

    Guys just curious if there is anything I can do to this years grafts that are showing heavy signs of CAR in my raised beds at home? I grafted a number of trees early this spring, transplanted outside. I thought that my first year grafts would be okay, I do have a number of cedars nearby...

    Stark -Franklins

    I picked up a "Supreme" semi-dwarf and was not impressed at all by the size of it. They were smaller in caliper than any of the other trees I have bought from them previously. Not anywhere close to the trees I purchased from Turkey Creek or Cummins either. I figured at the price though I...

    Stark -Franklins

    Thanks quite tempting. Headed to my cabin this weekend was thinking if they had them at my house by Friday I could put some in the ground. The M7 rootstock is all that is scaring me.

    First time apple tree grafting with some questions.

    I had a few that I thought were failures wake up in the past two days. I had a Liberty, Empire, and an unknown scion from a relative all show life within the past 2 days. These were all grafted around the beginning of April. I have 5 or 6 more that maybe will wake up as well. I guess moral...

    Northern whitetail crabs

    I received Scions of 30-06 and the DropTine this winter and my grafts are already pushing growth. Reading this thread it seems like they are winners. Mine are on M111 rootstock.

    Grafting tool

    http://habitat-talk.com/index.php?threads/grafting-tools.10279/ I posted this thread awhile back. I bought the same tool that was recommended here. I grafted 25 apples this summer. So far it appears like 18 or them are pushing growth within 2 weeks. The others I have high hopes for as well...

    First time apple tree grafting with some questions.

    Mine last year were anywhere from 5 days to 3 weeks. I grafted a number around 10 days ago at this point and around 40% are showing Green. It seems to be by variety as well. All of my Lodi, Chestnut crabs are showing life where my Goldrush, Empire, different crabs aren't. I am curious as...

    Cummins trees arrived today.

    I got my order from Cummins last week. An Enterprise and Haralson on P18. I took a ride to my cabin and put them in the ground last week, was tough digging holes when the ground was somewhat still frozen. Really nice looking trees from them this year.
