10x Sweet Kumquat Plant Cuttings for Rooting Propagation Grafting Citrus Fruit

Sale is for 10x Sweet Kumquat branch cuttings. I also sell the root stock, flying dragon. 

Grafting Kumquat Trees:

Kumquats are delightful citrus fruits with sweet skins and
tangy flesh. Grafting can help extend the productive life of your kumquat tree.
Here’s how to graft kumquats:

1. Select
   Your Materials:
• Choose
  a healthy rootstock kumquat tree (the base tree) and a desired kumquat
  variety (the scion) for grafting.
• Optimal
  bud sticks (scions) are roughly 1 year old and a quarter inch or less in
  diameter.
• If
  grafting cannot be done immediately, wrap the bud sticks in wet paper
  towels and store them in the refrigerator for up to three weeks.
2. Choose
   the Grafting Location:
• Identify
  branches on the rootstock tree that are a half to three-quarters of an
  inch in diameter.
• Avoid
  placing the new bud stick in an area that will receive south or west sun
  exposure to prevent sunburn.
3. Prepare
   the Grafting Knife:
• Use
  a one-sided, razor-sharp grafting knife.
• Make
  a vertical cut approximately half an inch in length and deep enough to
  cut into the wood.
• Create
  a horizontal cut underneath the vertical cut, also half an inch long,
  forming an inverted “T.”
4. Prepare
   the Bud Stick (Scion):
• Select
  a healthy bud stick with plump but still dormant buds.
• Cut
  the bud stick about one-half to three-quarters of an inch above the bud.
• Lift
  the chip of wood containing the bud using the leaf petiole (leaf removed)
  as a handle.
5. Grafting
   Process:
• Make
  a vertical incision in the rootstock bark.
• Insert
  the bud stick into the T-cut, ensuring a snug fit.
• Secure
  the bud with rubber bands or grafting tape.
• Apply
  grafting wax or sealant to protect the graft union.
• Keep
  the grafted area moist.
6. Care
   and Monitoring:
• Water
  the tree regularly.
• Observe
  the graft union for signs of success (new growth).

Remember that grafting is a skill that improves with
practice. Don’t be discouraged if your first attempts don’t succeed—it’s
all part of the learning process! 🌳🍊.

If you’d like to propagate kumquats from cuttings, here’s an
additional method:

1. Take
   a cutting with at least three nodes (where leaves grow).
2. Dip
   the end of the cutting in rooting hormone mixed with water.
3. Plant
   the cutting in potting mix, ensuring it stands on its own².

Happy grafting, and may your kumquat tree thrive!

Creating a Multi-Fruit Tree (Optional):

If you’d like to create a multi-fruit tree with Kumquats,
follow the same steps as mentioned earlier. Choose compatible fruit varieties,
plant them close together, and encourage cross-pollination for a diverse
harvest.

Happy grafting, and may your Kumquat tree thrive!
