Interesting Grafting Articles

[aclum]

Hi all,

I've been sort of scarce around here for a while due to some family health issues , tomato burnout after huge early season harvests that I could barely keep up with , and frustration in dealing with the drought later on in the season.

I have been checking in to read the posts here most everyday, though, and reading everyone's grow lists for the upcoming season has snapped me out of my tomato doldrums .

I'm planning on grafting again using RST-04-106-T this year (used 105 last year). To finally get to my point , I came across one really good article that I found very helpful in planning my grafting timing:

Based on the rootstock I'm using, I'm starting seeds for the scions and rootstock at the same time.

Also of interest are several of the links that can be found here:

Enjoy! (and excuse all the silly emoticons - I haven't posted for so long, I had to get it out of my system)
