Are you new to grafting or looking to improve your grafting success? Join Susan Poizner of OrchardPeople.com and Steph Muma of SilverCreekNursery.ca for a free, live webinar where we’ll dive into the most common mistakes new grafters make—and how to avoid them.
In this FREE webinar, you’ll learn how to:
Choose Compatible Trees
Not all trees are compatible for grafting. Discover how to select the right rootstock and host tree to avoid graft failures due to incompatibility.
Store Your Cuttings Correctly
Improper storage can ruin your cuttings. Learn the best practices for storing tree cuttings so they stay healthy and viable for grafting.
Safely Use a Grafting Knife
Using a grafting knife incorrectly can result in injury or poorly cut grafts. We’ll show you how to use it safely and make clean, precise cuts every time.
Secure Your Grafts for Success
If the living tissue of the two trees doesn't align properly, your graft won’t take. We’ll show you how to secure the graft correctly so the tissues overlap and grow together.
Wrap and Protect Your Grafts
Improper wrapping can leave grafts exposed, leading to drying out or infection. Learn how to securely wrap and protect your grafts to ensure they take and grow successfully.
This workshop is designed for anyone starting out with grafting or for those who want to sharpen their skills and get better results.
Who Should Attend?
Whether you’re a home grower, gardener, or arborist, this webinar will give you the knowledge to avoid frustrating grafting failures and start grafting with confidence.
Special Offer
At the end of the webinar, we’ll be offering an exclusive discount on our award-winning course Complete Fruit Tree Grafting and Budding—a deep dive into the world of grafting that will take your skills to the next level.
