For most beginner gardeners, the vaccination of fruit trees may seem very difficult work, you can even say that it is a little magic. Just think about everything right, then as a result you can get an improved sherry grade. As the majority of experienced gardeners notes, a sweetheart is a capricious tree and get an excellent harvest is not always obtained, as the tree is very susceptible to frost. Because of this, in most cases, the grafting of sweet cherries is performed.
What is vaccination and what is it needed for?
The grafting of fruit tree is a great way to multiply certain varieties. As a result, the tree does not lose the ability to fruiting, and on the contrary, is updated and continues to actively give the fruits. In addition, if there is no free space on the household site to plant a certain variety, such as apple trees, cherries and cherries, you need to free the place and wait for several years of the first crop. All this can be avoided if you make a cherry cherry. In addition to solving this nuance, the gardener has the opportunity to improve the stability of trees to negative weather conditions, speed up the duration of ripening and improve the quality of a certain plant variety.
Cherry is a fruit tree that cannot be propagated by another way, except for vaccination. Therefore, the only chance to update the plant, as well as get a new variety of wood, is an ads. It is important to know that the vaccination can only be done on those trees that are not infected with diseases, that is, that the fruit tree is absolutely healthy.
What are there any vacation methods
Popular ways, this is an eyepiece or vaccination "peeper", as well as shilling or grafting of the cutting. Variants of the submachine of a cutting of another plant, for example, when you need to make a cherry cherry, there are several.
Consider all types of checking cuttings:
- Congulate.
- Side method.
- In split.
- Ven in the bark of a tree.
An important point remains a cut, the better it will be, the faster the plant will restrict after manipulation. The slice must be necessarily smooth without jar, its length can range from 2 to 3.5 cm, and in each case, the length of the cut can be different.
What instruments and materials are needed
To cope without any problems with grafting, immediately prepare the instrument and the necessary vaccination material.
In order to make the vaccine of cherries, you may need:
- Acute eyepuliping knife. In advance, take care that the blade is not only well sharpened, but also sharp. Check how sharpen the blade of the tool can be like this: take 4 album sheets, fold them together in half, and then again. Try to cut the paper with a knife if the task is easily executed, then you can proceed to work. Just in case, it is best to capture a sharp bar with you so that in the event of a tool dull, it was possible to quickly sharpen the blade.
- Prepare a secateur (special fixture for cutting branches and vaccinations) and saw.
- Follow the film to wind the vaccination location. It can be a polyethylene film or polyvinyl chloride. You may also need polyethylene packages.
- Prepare garden Var or buy a ready-made mixture in a specialized store. It will come in handy for shrinking the cut to hesitate faster.
Dates of work
The vaccination is best to do in the spring, the optimal time is starting from the first weeks of March and until the end of April. Due to the fact that the cherry is afraid of frosts, it is best to accumulate a cherry cherry, then you can avoid the death of a tree and improve the quality of the fruit.
At the end of April, when freezing is no longer so strong, you can start work. The vaccination material (cuttings) is pre-prepared in advance (since the autumn) is not necessary, the desired branch can be cut before the vaccination itself. Choose short shoots on which there is one or more kidney.
If you are afraid that you can harm the tree, you can test the cherry and find out how much wood is afraid of frosts. Early spring or a few days before the vaccination you need to cut off a branch with sweet cherries and carefully look at the location of the cut. If fresh wounds immediately darkened and the location of the cut was brown, then in your garden is growing unstable to the cherry frills. If the cut remained light, then this material is just suitable for vaccination.
Subtleties of vaccination
First you need to assimilate that the cherry is a very capricious tree and not always the first time you will have a positive result. Do not despair, because even experienced gardeners know that the sweet cherry is very bad.
Therefore, it is important to comply with such recommendations:
- first you need to pick up a suitable tree. The thickness of the branch must be exactly the same as the thickness of the lead (the place for which the cherry sprig must be made);
- try to combine both material so that the cut line coincides;
- if you choose the bottom branch, then after vaccination with the onset of frosts, when the tree has not yet completely strengthened, you will have a chance to cover the tree with snow;
- the diameter of the subset twig and the flow should be the same, but not exceed 4 cm;
- after the selected mixing method of cherries on the cherry, the vaccination site should be wrapped with an insulating material (cellophane or tape), and from above for reliability to make several turns with a rope. Only wrap the rope is not too tight so as not to harm the tree. It is only necessary to fix the insulating layer so that it does not operate from the gusts of the wind;
- after the first kidneys appeared on the cherry, it is possible to remove the strapping material, but only the top layer. Leave only the isolent. It is allowed to remove after a few months, after the leaves will fall;
- as soon as the kidneys are swollen, try to pinch a few weak kidneys, leave only 1 or 2, the strongest. This trick will help the tree not lose juice and grow faster;
- the stalks at the top of the vaccination for reliability are desirable to handle garden borants.
The best way to vaccine sweet cherries is an eyepling.
In order to make an inhalation on the kidney, it is necessary:
- In the cherry cortex (this is a dot) with a sharp knife we \u200b\u200bmake a longitudinal incision. The length of the cut must be no more than 4 cm.
- The branch can be prepared in advance. If you have purchased separately several twigs of a certain variety, then you can save the material even in the refrigerator. To do this, wrap the twigs into a wet fabric, then wrap the cellophane and put on the lower shelf of the refrigerator. From time to time you need to ensure that the fabric is always wet.
- From that branch to which the cuttings will be taken, it is necessary to remove the leaflets (can be left). It is so easier to understand, a branch of sweet cherry took root or not.
As mentioned earlier, the best time for vaccination is the middle of spring. If the seed cuttings did not fit, then you can repeat the manipulation in the warm season. Just since mid-July, you can choose a suitable non-fit day to make vaccination. For the second chance of vacancy chance, the time is not limited, you can make vaccination even at the end of August. Just in the period of active coating, the cuttings will be better to fire, which means that the chains have more chances for successful adheated. The main thing is to have time to the first cold.

Spring cherry grafting
You can combine the branches between themselves (cuttings with the bulk of the tree) in different ways, but best, if it is an improved copulating method.
Cherry should be young, age up to 7 years. It is allowed to vaccinate a cherry on a 10-year cherry, but best, if the tree is not more than 7 and at least 3 years. When there are no young cherry trees on the summer site, you can work with old trees, only the branches for the stock are better to choose thin, from 10 cm.
The improved copulating method is suitable only if the diameter of the flow and the lead coincides. As a last resort, a small difference is allowed.
How to make vaccination:
- Choose a suitable cherry tree, make a sharp knife with a cut (by oblique).
- We select a sturdy cutlery of cherry. You can cut it in advance or immediately before the manipulation itself. The length of the cutting - no more than 30 cm.
- At the cherry branch, you need to make the same slice on the oblique, given the location of the kidneys. It should "look" on the opposite section of the side.
- So that the branch takes care, it is necessary to make a sharp knife "tongue". Therefore, with the help of a knife, we need to split the vertical of the dive and stalk.
- It turns out a slash cut, which you need to combine so that both "tongs" coincided. Externally, the platform should look like a branch of cherry - this is a continuation of the twig of the cherry.
- The vaccination location needs to clean up tightly first with a tape and lubricate the garden Warr. And only after that you can wind in several layers of polyethylene tape and fix the protective material by the twine.
When the trigger is larger than the diameter than the dive
What if the lead is more? Then it is necessary to use another method of vaccinating cherries on the cherry - wide. The method is simple and at the same time universal, as you can choose the best option: set the cushion (1-2 twigs) in the center of the thick branch of the cherry, around or side into the slot.
Features of vaccination:
- on the cherry, a sharp knife make a cut;
- next, with the help of a knife, we need to make split. To do this, insert the knife into the hole and knock on the handle with the hammer. Thus, it turns out a deepening. Ideally, we need the depth of the splits to be 4 cm;
- we take a stalk and cut off the sharp knife first with one, and then on the other hand it is so that the wedge turned out. The distance from the eye is 1 cm, the length of the wedge itself is approximately 3 cm;
- insert the cuttings with a sharp end in the gap (the lower eye remains outside);
- now you need to carefully remove the knife. We make it swinging movements not to disturb all the work;
- after the manipulation done, it is necessary to establish a vaccination place.
If you are working with an adult tree (age from 10 or more years), then you need to be extremely careful, since when removing the knife, the cutlets can fill. So that this does not happen, you need to insert a wedge into the center in the center. After you do everything, carefully remove the clins. This can not be done, as it will fall independently.
It is very important that you in no case touched the cut with hands. Otherwise, all the work done can be spoiled.

Work can be called successful if you choose the appropriate time. As soon as the first leaves appear on the tree, you can start vaccination.
Features of the work:
- first you need to make an incision in the form of the letter "T" or first remove the bark and make an incision vertically up to 4 cm long;
- we select the vaccination material: the cuttings are suitable with 2 kidneys;
- under the second kidney you need to cut the bark. We make an oblique cut line 4 cm;
- the cuttings need to be inserted as much as possible in the cortex free from the cortex so that the axis of the valve and the bonding coincide, the slices of the garden harder, and then clean the dressing material tightly.
Now you know the ways of vaccinating cherries for the cherry.
