Grafting Plants

My first attempts at micrografts in pere


I thought I had lost them. Didn’t pay any attention and found them growing this morning. Is there anything I can do on future grafts to avoid the discoloration on the bottom of the scions?

    Was the seedling sun stressed when you grafted? I ask because that’s exactly how mine looked when I tried (successfully) to save some small reddish seedlings.  Mine has only pumped healthy green growth since I have grafted it. If I look at the bottom I can still see the purple red area, but it represents such a small part of the plant now you really have to go looking for it, and if I regraft it I will likely chop that part off. Your graph looks like it’s doing great to me, well done

    The result still overcome the problem, well done 😎👌 I’m not done with my first micro graft yet, the seedlings always end dried up so I’m increasing the humidity, anyway I had result with bigger impale graft on pere and even there a good percentage show some kind of discoloration/deformation when growing start.

    Not a problem, don’t worry about it. Soon enough they’ll be so chunky the bottom bit won’t matter. Sometimes I’ll just cut the tip off the seedling and graft that if they’re super red but it really doesn’t matter.
