Commercial orchards graft trees because a grafted tree will fruit faster than a non-graphted tree. You were also talking about root quality? Think about it, All you did was put a tree top on a set of roots, the tree that grew those roots was natural. Please, look over your information before you put stuff like this up.

And, you saying that the tree on its own roots will be taller, this is true, but for fruit, an orchard usually trims the top of the tree so the fruit is easy to pick. This is not because of the grafting. The grafting would accually make it grow larger, because it doesn't have to establish its own roots.

And, grafted trees are MORE resistant to disease ect. Because they use the pre-existing root system of another tree. This means that they usually grow healthier. Why do you think commercial companys use grafted trees...

Sorry about being impolite I was angry about some other things and took it out on you while I was watching your movie. Please research problems with planting too deep. It takes 5-15 years before problems show up. |
