Abstract

Three general techniques are used in seedless propagation of pome fruit trees. They are "June" budding, dormant budding, and grafting. Each has its season: spring to midsummer, midsummer till frost, and the dormant season, respectively. When possible, "June" budding is preferable to dormant budding, because a season of strong growth is usually obtained in the year of the bud insertion, rather than the material's having to be held dormant until the next season. Last year, a chance discovery made possible the benefits of both "June" budding and grafting during the dormant budding season.
