How to graft pomegranate

The most commonly used methods of pomegranate tree are cutting grafting, splitting grafting, subcutaneous grafting and bud grafting.

Here, the grafting method of pomegranate tree is introduced first, which is more suitable for spring in the north.

First, choose a suitable rootstock, and then cut a vertical incision on the rootstock with a special chopping tool, with a depth of about 5 cm.

Then trim the scion, leaving three buds on the scion, and cut the grafting surface into a pointed inverted triangle with a knife.

Then cut the rootstock separately and insert the scion. When inserting scions, we must pay attention to some problems. When grafting, the cambium of scion and rootstock must be aligned, which can improve the survival rate in the later stage.

After the grafting is completed, wrap it tightly with about three centimeters of tape.

Check it in time later. Generally, scions can survive for about two weeks. If it can't survive, the scion will dry up and turn black. This situation requires timely secondary grafting.
