When is the best time of year to graft?

Answer 1

The best time to graft is typically in the spring, just as the plants begin to break dormancy and when the sap starts to flow, usually between late March and early April. This timing allows for optimal healing and growth, as the warmer temperatures promote active growth in the scion and rootstock. In some cases, late summer or early fall can also be suitable for certain types of grafting, particularly in warmer climates. Always consider local climate conditions and the specific plants being grafted for the best results.
