Hi all!
So I have two P. domestica specimens produced from an air-layer in 2020, both have the same problem addressed herein, I will focus on one of them:
(here in june 2022)
They grew healthy in training wooden containers and were repotted in 2023.
After growth flush it is vibrant and healthy, and I have been able to start trying to ramify it by post-flush pruning starting in 2023
(June 2024)
However, I can see that the old wood, as I have learned here at Mirai, can’t produce new growth and a leggy structure is unavoidable without grafting.
(here in March 2024)
On top of that, some parts of the trunk have dead areas as you can see here:
So I gather I have to graft to be able to push new growth inside…? But I just can’t find grafting information in Mirai Live apart from Junipers and Pines… Please help.
