Growers of the grafted plants should be aware of meristem regrowth, or the sprouting of the rootstock from one of its two growth buds located at the graft location. I did try to eliminate these buds but some where nonexistent at the time of grafting. If you see meristem regrowth do not freak out and go in there with a magnifying glass and a razor blade. It is fine to wait until the bud forms out a bit and it is easier to eliminate. I have been over anxious in the past and cut a bit too much and lost a good plant. You only have the possibility of two on each plant.
