purdy darn excited about my melon plant graft yesterday on my (2)combined 146.5 melon plants. This morning 7/11 looks like the graft is going to take just fine..and I knew it would I've done them so much. So now these 2 plants are grafted at 2 main vines each if and when thee other 2 of the 4 main vines reach each other they too will get grafted but I think having 2 of them grafted is good enough for what I want at this point. Now for a melon to get set past one of those 2 grafted vines. Fingers crossed. I did a very nice gradual cleft graft, clamped with 1 set of clapms over & under of ea. other and a single clamp next to that to hold the graft tight and secure from slipping then I cover with sulfer wrapped in plastic wrap and cover from the sun. The very High Humidity levels right now are perfect for this 100%!
