Proper Ways to Increase Plant Grafting. It was, everyone likes a variety of convenience and practicality. So also in the case of plants reproduce. There are many reasons people want a quick way, but it gives effective results so that plants can grow quite large. For example, for the cultivation of plants as a hobby or for business purposes. So far, there are many ways we know to be able to reproduce these plants, for example by means of cuttings, grafting, grafting, and grafting. All the way has advantages and disadvantages of each, there's no harm in trying all kinds of ways until eventually you can figure out which way gives satisfactory results.

In addition, not all the way can be applied to all crops, often for particular plant required a special way too. So smart to figure out ways in which you can choose to multiply your plants are.

Vegetative Reproduction sorts

Still remember the first junior high school biology lessons that discuss vegetative reproduction ? What exactly is meant by vegetative reproduction? Vegetative reproduction is the opposite of generative reproduction. If generative reproduction is a way of living beings reproduce sexually, which is preceded by a process of merging the male and female sex cells, the vegetative reproduction is how life developed he asexually ie without the merger between male and female sex cells.

Almost most living things use the generative or sexual reproduction to reproduce themselves, for example, of course humans, mammals and various plants. The reproduction vegetatif only done by most other living things. By way of reproduction, vegetative reproduction is divided into two, namely :

1. The process that occurs naturally ie without human intervention. For natural way can be found in some animals such as amoeba and paramecium are doing the division to reproduce itself. In plants, we can look at the plant yam and potato tubers multiply the stem, or other types of onions to grow bulbs, tubers and roots of the plant carrots and radish sprouts growing on banana plants. Overall it is a way plants reproduce themselves or reproduce naturally, without human intervention and without sexual activity involving the male and female.
2. Occur artificially by human role in it. The artificial way that we find in plants as a way transplant, grafting, cuttings, and so on.

Types of Artificial Vegetative Reproduction

As already described earlier, is an artificial vegetative reproduction is the way humans by applying all the techniques that can be done to expand the plant through a series of processes without marriage. Usually this technique is very useful in agriculture. Offspring produced in this process is called a clone. Therefore, the act of plant propagation is also called cloning. Clones are the seeds that have all the properties and characteristics of the parent plant. The results obtained from this process are mostly very satisfying and gives better results and more effective planting time. In the process, the clones are prepared to a certain age and then planted. This is done to shorten the time of planting and harvest time accelerating.

Therefore, when applying this method we can see there are plants that bear fruit more quickly, for example, can be harvested in 2-3 years, faster than similar plants grown in the conventional way, ie by planting seeds of time required to harvest ranged up to 4 years.

There are a variety of ways common to plants can reproduce artificially, as follows :

1. Cuttings

Propagation of plants using this method is considered as the most easily compared to other means. Propagation done by planting certain parts like the parent plant stems or leaves without waiting for root growth first.

2. Graft

It is also widely chosen ways to propagate plants. Grafting is done by skinning part branches or twigs from the parent plant to clean. Then, the ground is covered with taste, use plastic wrapped, and wait until it came out of the land of the hairy roots. Having seen many hairy roots that grow then it could be moved to a medium pot or planting a larger area.

3. Grafting

How to propagate plants that may be the most popular grafting. There have been many who choose this way, but in fact turned out to be tricky to apply well in order to get satisfactory results. To do grafting way is easy, that the parent plant buds attach to the stem.

How Exactly Do Grafting

Since grafting is the method most preferred plant propagation because of the ease and effectiveness, would be be attention proper and correct way to do the grafting. Here are a series of ways that have to do with either:

1. First, cut branches parent plants will be taken buds. When buds are recommended decision is in the morning or late afternoon because of the time this does not happen the process of photosynthesis in plants.
2. The leaves are all around should be discarded, then carefully open buds from the bottom to the top.
3. The incision should not be too big and long, just 2 cm.
4. Half of the skin incision primary per branch cut, then pasted buds that had been prepared.
5. Once the buds stick well, immediately covered with half an incision that does not cut off earlier. Should not closing the buds attached.
6. By using a special plastic wrap from the bottom up to the top. This is done so that the buds tightly closed plastic so that no water enters when watering which can lead to the decay process.

Key Success Grafting

Sure that you do grafting process can deliver maximum results. Here are the things you should look carefully when doing grafting.

1. Choosing The Right buds

One of the factors that determine the success of this process is the selection of buds. Should choose buds that are potentially great for growing, for example if you want to experiment with the type of plant mango or guava, choose buds looks a little bud.

2. Exactly How Cutting

How wrenching is also very important. Incision in the parent plant stems and upper stem must be done properly. The wood should not be cut off the parent plant, as well as cadmium (mucus or sap found in the wood) should also not be lost because cadmium is acting as a medium to transport nutrients from the leaves to lose body plants. If cadmium, it is certain that buds attached will not get the nutrients and new shoots will not grow.

3. Appropriate Binding

How to bind to parent plant buds also can not be done haphazardly. It needs to be ensured is to bind a bond firmly and tightly so it does not allow air or water can get into the buds which can cause decay.

4. Exactly and Fast How it Works

Yes .. everything must be done quickly and accurately, as well as the incision has been made of the parent plant should not be left too long in the open air. This can cause disruption of cadmium could dry up and delivery of nutrients to the plant timber. Therefore, it should be all that is needed for both the tool and the material must be well prepared before doing a series of work.

Also you should prepare beforehand buds will be used only then make an incision in the parent plant. The timing is right to work is also important, you should choose a time in the morning or late afternoon sun is not too highlighted. To scorching sun and heat that can also drain cadmium. Agricultural technology is evolving so rapidly. Available technology should be utilized in the best possible. The means of artificial breeding of plants either by cuttings, grafting and grafting may be an option to get a new plant in a fast time.
