SUMMARY:Virtual Interest Group Meeting: Scionwood and Roostock Preparation
DESCRIPTION:Learn more about when and how to gather fruit scionwood\, how to store and preserve it\, along with rootstocks\, for field or bench grafting in the spring at the next NAFEX Interest Group meeting. Fruit growers and NAFEX directors Dan Bussey and Larry Stephenson will share their favorite methods and invite other NAFEX members to share theirs. They’ll also talk about rootstock storage and preparation to help ensure grafting success. \nThe presentations will be followed by a Q&A and discussion amongst members about our favorite methods and tools. \nThis forum is FREE for NAFEX members\, who will automatically receive an email invitation with the ZOOM link and call-in information before the event.
