Hi everyone,
I bought yesterday my rootstocks to graft, all of them Gomera 3. Most have just one stem, but 3 of them have already spread and have 3/4 branches. They are just around 20 inches high. So my doubt is, given that they will be grafted in one month, should I remove all the stems except the strongest one or should I leave all of them and graft them all?
Here the pics of the 3 rootstocks with more than one stem:
This one has already 3 stems, all of them pushing new flushes:
This one has 2 healthy stems and one tiny branch in the centre, at least this last one I really think that I should remove it:
And this one has 4 stems, but there is a stem stronger than the surrounding ones, so probably would be wise to let just the main one:
I'll deeply appreciate any advice/opinion from you!
Jose
