How to Connect Different Plants to One Tree

*Initial preparation of how to connect the top of plants

The following are the preparations before carrying out the topping of the plant, we recommend that we first prepare the ingredients and tools

• grafting blades make sure sharp and sterile
  -grafting tape, plastic grafting or plastic ice, if indeed there is no plastic grafting as a bond between entres and rootstock
  -plastic cup if needed

• Steps for connecting shoots of plants

• Hand washing to be sterile, then we prepare first the upper part of the entris which we will slice on the left and right side which resembles an ax eye, try to make the same length between the left and right approximately the slice length 2 cm or 3 cm. For this purpose, try to find superior quality plants.

At the time of slicing, one slice is made so that the cambium is not injured, the purpose of one slice is to cut it from the top to the bottom in one slice so that the unification process can succeed perfectly. enter because it can make the connection runny which results in the failure of our connection process.

• The second step:
  After finishing working on the upper stem entrises, we continue to work on the rootstock, which is to look for plants that grow perfectly healthy and fresh, and avoid pests, usually in one plant there are many growing stems, among them, choose a stem about the size of a pencil but it must adjust to the size of the upper stem due to the important suitability for this technique.

• The third step:
  After the lower part of the stem is finished we tuck the entres or pieces of eye stem shoots to the rootstock, remember not to be sheared and also repeated tucked into the base of the rootstock because it will damage the cambium after fitting installed perfectly, then tied using grafting tape or you can also use plastic mambo ice that can be stretched to be long.

Remember that the binding must be right, it means that it should not be too strong and not too loose because if it is too strong the plant will suffocate, but if it is too loose the connection will not be perfect and the water will easily enter, then if the water enters it is very fatal because it will cause rotten or the stem of the eye shoots. After finishing the binding of the remaining plastic binding or grafting tape can be wrapped into the entres until the shoots or completely wrapped so that the humidity is maintained, and if if indeed the rest of the connection binder is not enough to bandage entres we can use cupola using plastic

• the last step:
  After we tie it perfectly and wrap it or in the cupola we can wait for about 21 days or less, especially if there are buds that have grown new shoots, signaling that our connection has opened and removed the plastic wrap on the entres.

Only the cupola or bandage at the top is opened because it can disrupt new shoots that will grow and develop for the bond at the bottom can wait approximately the connection is strong and fused perfectly which is marked by the plant has enlarged, the connection appears curve- the curve and the bond began to disturb or shed the planting, then it was opened so it wouldn't break later.
