Marmot1 says... This is a wrong idea/stereotype definitely. As I graft 3 types (2 B types/1 A type) onto one tree, yet, there's a match issue for A/B scions to A/B rootstocks (and this will after the success rate), sometimes, the rootstocks (shepard/bacon)are weak, but after grafting, say, hass scions, they outgrow some on reed rootstock. Bacon on hass rootstock--I thought it might make bacon a little dwarf, perhaps it truely is (perhaps they should have been bigger than current), however, I noticed one bacon tree on hass is the biggest among types. I don't have enough samples, and don't want to do any experiments on this. One thing is sure, several types on one rootstock, the most aggressive one. It brings up one point--selection, even as small as hass seeds, several of which might become wonderful as rootstocks--then we come to a new stage--clonal rootstocks. I have an idea, someone can sow zutano/reed/velvick seeds into soil, and irrigate them with tap water (perhaps add more salt), the ones which survived can deal with salty water, and perhaps water clogging. | About the Author Marmot1 QUAKERS HILL,2763,NSW 17th December 2020 3:41pm #UserID: 20667 Posts: 102 View All Marmot1's Edible Fruit Trees |
