Our first year grafting tomatoes! Often seen in orcharding, where you can graft different citrus or stone fruit to create a “fruit salad” tree, grafting is also a fun way to boost yield and results from your tomato crop.
Using the ‘Fortamino’ tomato from our seed company @botanical_interests you want to graft stems of similar size together. Slice at the same angle on both stems for best chance at success.
After the graft, keep in the dark and mist for a few days, then slowly re introduce to light. A week is about the time you can consider a transplant into the garden.
In our case, ‘Fortamino’ supercharges your grafted tomato with more leaves to prevent sun scald, more tomatoes per truss, and higher resistance to fusarium!

I live in the Midwest where we struggle with A LOT of fungus and diseases (I also have neighbors who don't do anything to mitigate these things and it spreads to my garden easily), so I often look for disease resistant types or keep seeds from plants that did the best... Wonder if grafting would be another way to get a more disease resistant plant 🤔
@siggyvdz8213
Жыл бұрын
If there is soil disease and airborn one you can try to drafted two varieties with resistance for soil disease as rootbearer and inversly. But all this resistance stuff is playing with genetic and sadly not an holistic solution. For example soil health (cover, no till etc) and no chimical (fertilizer or pesticide which change plant ph-redox) are others options you can try :)

It seems to be mostly airborne things being carried over by the bugs. It's not too long after my neighbors start getting powdery mildew and leaf spot (the 2 most prevalent) that mine start doing the same. I'm going to try and keep on a weekly regime of Neem oil and copper fungicide this year. Hopefully that will help. And I'll be trying a different staking system with my tomatoes year, so they will be pruned more and hopefully that helps too.

Or you can allow your tomato to grow at least three or four additional leaves. This should put it around a foot tall. Cut all over leaves off except for the very top. And then planted all the way to the top of those leaves. This will force the plant to grow strong roots all the way down that part of the plant you just buried. It does the same thing without losing a lot of plants to this grafting

I think you are missing the point. The purpose of grafting is to make a low fruit producing, disease prone variety of tomato produce more and better quality fruit on a plant than will better resist disease by using a hardy vigorous root stock.

Grafting is a very popular technique among vintners to get more desireable or unique grapes as well! It can also be used to match a desired grape variety with a soil type that doesn't grow that grape well. Take the top of the grape you want and the lower woody stem of a species that absorbs the nutrients present in the soil better than the top half!

Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and Aubergines can all be grafted onto each other. They're the same family. If you want a potato plant that grows tomatoes and peppers right next to each other, you can! Have fun!

If im not mistaken, you want to make sure to keep the graft above the soil level when planting to prevent the top half from putting out roots and bypassing the grafted roots.

Once the roots are cut the graft, clone, or propagation can only take moisture in through the leaves, make sure you use a dome. Some cultivators have rooms that keep constant appropriate moisture in the air, this is the only time you do not need a dome to my knowledge.
