Default Grafting Sweet Peppers

Hi All

I'm hoping someone can tell me where to start me search for Grafting latex?

I ready that this is used to hold the root stock to the new (top bit), sorry I don't know the techincal term

Anyway its described as a latex tube being 2mm inernal diameter, which holds the bits together a drops off after a couple of weeks.

As always any help would be greatly appreciated.

Rergards to all

Paul

never heard of grafting latex, sounds like getting the cut ends into the tube and getting a good graft would be a bit tricky. i've used grafting tape which seems to work

Hi

Well I think )never done it before) that the latex is virtually clear which means you can line up the 30 degree cuton each stem.

I've appended some pics for your interest.
