2Deep2Handle Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) Who says Pere is a temporary stock? These were grafted Oct 2012 as 8 day old seedlings. They look shiny, as i'd just washed off some tomato dust before photographing. The spinosad doesn't seem to have knocked the mealy around at all, and neither has the sulphur, but both chemicals seem to smash the spider mite. I think the pot size is 83mm but dont quote me. This Willamsii var Mazapil was purchased off Watertrade in late 2012 and is still on its original stock, however was cut down, rerooted on a rockwool cube, and then planted back out once roots emerged from the bottom of the rockwool, the stock is about 3 cm long these days. Anyone else out there got ancient pere grafts still cranking? Edited June 28, 2017 by 2Deep2Handle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inyan Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Nice to see a few seed grown specimens in your collection. Your grafts definitely look to be doing very well indeed. Congrats on getting 8 day old seedling to take as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagiXsagi Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 the shortness of the stock plays a role in it be long living.. hiding the stock is also pretty cool Idea, as grafts are usually ugly... longer stocks would give far best speed of growth though.. lopho on tricho works amazing as well, grafts on pere are temporary indeed if they grow fast enough: stock cannot handle to carry the weight of scion...

Pedropark Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Wow amazing plant, any plans for degrafting? I am thinking about leaving my graft as it is. How long is it possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrivers Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Don't plan on de grafting it. I guess as long as it is healthy it can stay there for decades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
