Cherry is a general term for some plum plants, also known as cherry, warbler, thorn, wedge and so on. It is planted in Liaoning, Shaanxi, Gansu, Shandong and other places in China. What tree can the cherry tree be grafted with? You need to know when and how!

What tree can a cherry tree be grafted with?

Fruit trees are usually grafted with closely related ones, so cherry trees can be grafted with green cherry, sour cherry, wild sweet cherry, Mahari sour cherry, Chinese cherry, hairy cherry, Chinese dwarf cherry, grass cherry, Polai cherry and other tree species.

When will the cherry trees be grafted?

1. Scion collection can be carried out one month before budding. The fruiting branches and developing branches with strong growth, high quality and high yield, strong adaptability and no diseases and insect pests were selected, and the sturdy branches outside the crown were selected. The wax is sealed after harvest and tied up according to the variety. Store at 5-8 ℃ at low temperature and take as you like.

two。 Branch grafting is carried out in spring before the rootstock germinates to sprout and spread leaves, and the specific period varies according to region and climate, such as Shandong from the end of March to early April, Henan in late March, Hebei in mid-late April and Liaoning in early May.

Therefore, the region, climate and other factors affect the grafting time, we should determine the grafting time of cherry trees according to the local actual situation.

What is the grafting method of cherry trees?

Cherry trees are usually grafted by bud grafting and plate bud grafting.

1. Bud grafting

The early stage is within 15-24 days in mid-late March, and the later stage is from mid-July to August, sometimes to mid-September for a period of 50 days. In the early stage of grafting, 5-6 full buds in the middle of strong branches should be selected as buds, and in September, full buds should be selected from the bare branches in the crown.

two。 Sheet budding

Plate bud grafting can be carried out throughout the year. When grafting, select a smooth part at the base of the rootstock 1 cm away from the ground, and gently peel off a layer of skin along the vertical red direction. Form a long oval face about 25 cm long and 1mm deep (to expose the yellowish green cortex) and then. Stick the sprouts tightly on the cutting surface of the rootstock and tie them tightly with plastic tape.

3. Grafting management

Cutting stock: before the grafted seedlings sprout, cut off the stem of the rootstock at 0.2 cm above the bud. Then transplant according to 15Murray 20cm plant spacing and 50-60cm row spacing.

De-sprouting: the buds were grafted after cutting and transplanting, and the rootstock buds germinated first. Sprouting after budding. Therefore, when the rootstock buds germinate, the buds of rootstock L should be wiped out on time to promote the germination and growth of the grafted buds. Since then, it will be removed for 3-4 times in a row. After budding, choose to keep a healthy shoot.

Binding: when the new tip is 10 cm long, insert a pillar near the seedling. The Sichuan hemp rope or plastic film belt binds the new ends to the pillar L to prevent the wind from breaking the new ends. After that. As the new shoots grow. Tied up every 24 centimeters.

After sprouting, the available nitrogen fertilizer was applied continuously for 3 times every 20 days. Apply 120-150 kg urine per hectare per hectare. No more topdressing after May to avoid excessive growth of seedlings.

Generally speaking, if you master the grafting time and methods of cherry trees and choose the right rootstocks, the survival rate will not be poor.
