The grafting time of persimmon trees is very important, which can determine the survival rate. The most suitable time in spring is from late March to late April, when the temperature is relatively stable, it is conducive to rooting. The most suitable time is around the middle of April, just when the buds begin to sprout, but the leaves haven't grown out yet, and the survival rate of grafting is the highest. If the time is too early and the temperature is relatively cold, it is unfavorable for growth. If the time is too late, the growth period happens to meet the hot summer period, and the survival rate decreases. Besides spring, you can also choose summer and Autumn
1. Rootstock and scion: the best choice of rootstock is to use 1-3-year-old strong branches with a diameter of about 2cm thick and thin. The scion ensures smooth epidermis, plump bud points, no diseases and pests, and good quality. Generally, scions should be grafted immediately after cutting. If they can't be grafted directly, they need to be wrapped with wet sand and stored in low temperature.
2. Grafting: it can be grafted in a T-shaped way. The rootstock is carved with a T-shaped shape, and the skin is uncovered along the notch. Hold the scion and insert it into the T-Notch, then close and align the bark on both sides.
