Inoculations shank help to make multiple copies grades of garden trees, to raise harvest, to make more tasty fruits on dichka. The sapling will repeat important features of maternal plant therefore the gardener at some experience can create new grades: more winter-hardy, with set of large, tasty fruits. Correctly to impart shank, some knowledge and tools will be necessary, however even the beginning summer resident can master this procedure.
Scion and stock
The gardener has to know about compatibility of plants, in time and competently to cut off and keep branches for the subsequent inoculation. Only then at him it will turn out to impart shank correctly.
It is impossible to impart part of one plant on another at random. Related fruit-trees, grades of one look are usually successfully combined, but there are exceptions. Before starting the garden procedure, it is necessary to know for sure whether similar inoculations were carried out and successful they were.
Will take part in process:
- stock – stalk and the root system of garden tree which will be responsible for power supply;
- scion – the imparted shank with buds of the second fruit crop.
The low-yield old tree or dichok which is more unpretentious and frost-resistant, than the cultivated grade usually act as stock. The scion and stock influence at each other as the result – tree fructifies more active and more qualitatively.
When to prepare and how to store shanks
At preparation of shanks important that those were in the sleeping phase. Usually it occurs prior to the beginning of spring sokodvizheniye - since November on the middle of December when branches grow ripe, but do not freeze slightly. For this purpose allocate one-year, perspective healthy branches at krone, with large number of the created kidneys. Length of each shank – about 25-40 cm, from three to eight kidneys.
Sometimes the inoculation is carried out on spring in one afternoon, without preliminary preparation of scions. In this case it is necessary to use the branches at the earth with the sleeping kidneys which were late to reveal.
The prepared shanks for inoculation can be connected in bunch and to powder with the earth or to dig on depth of 25-30 cm. As the option is to wind with the humidified newspaper and film, having left free faces and to dig in snow on ground level. Stocks can also be kept in cellar or refrigeration chamber, having enveloped in the humidified cloth and polyethylene.
How to impart shank for bark
The spring inoculation of shank can be carried out by various ways, one of the most widespread – for bark. It approaches at restoration of tree and if the imparted branch quite thick. At stock the majority of the main branches at distance of 80-100 cm from trunk has to be previously cut, are left 3, at the same time saw cuts need to be processed garden knife.
On bark of stock the cut to wood on 6 cm in length becomes, then it needs to be shifted carefully the back of a knife. On scion becomes braid, a little sharpened cut and shank is entered under the made an incision bark. It is necessary that vascular fabrics of both plants were in excellent condition and densely adjoined, and the shank was located parallel to branch. Inoculation it is necessary to tie densely with twine and to grease with the garden thief who it is possible to buy in shop for gardeners.
The simple and improved kopulirovka
Thin shanks if they one diameter with stock (for example, with one-year wildly), usually recommend to impart by kopulirovka method. At easy way on stock it is necessary to make diagonal five-centimetric cut, same – on scion, having receded on centimeter from the second kidney.
Plants connect cuts that all fabrics have coincided, including bark, sapwood and cambium, then do by turbinal movements binding adhesive tape. Gleams there should not be!
At the improved kopulirovka that fabrics of scion have even more precisely coincided with stock, from above cuts it is necessary to make flat notches-rasshchepy. They will have to come at each other at connection of plants, having closed them in peculiar lock.
After kopulirovka, having pressed both parts of plant, it is necessary to roll up densely them adhesive tape, to put on from above plastic bag and to tie it below than the imparted shank.
Will help to gain additional knowledge of how to impart shank what ways of inoculations happen and of many other consultations of experienced gardeners, information on the Internet. Today there is large number of specialized online magazines and the websites, blogs, such as "To the gardener" Evgenia Fedorova, "the Video blog by the Gardener". Competently carried out inoculations will help the summer resident to create own unique garden.
