Why watermelon lagenariya: vaccination vegetable crops
Why and how to vaccinate vegetables
Not every vegetable grower decides to plant breeding using vaccination. Some scares this operation because of its apparent complexity - "grafting watermelon on lagenariyu" even sounds scary; others simply do not see it as meaningless.
But the fruits from grafted plants mature earlier, yields are increasing - and most importantly, this method turns out to grow even capricious and whimsical plants. Another Soviet agronomists have shown that so you can get the famous Turkmen and Uzbek melons in any climatic zone. There are several methods of vaccination. In this article, we describe how to instill vegetable crops FORUMHOUSE users.

What culture is grafted
Culture with a weak root system grafted onto the culture with high growth energy. A plant that is grafted is called a scion, those that impart - rootstock.
Eggplant grafted onto tomato, gives higher yields; melon and watermelon on pumpkin become resistant to weather conditions; cucumber on the pumpkin acquires resistance to fusarium. Ways many vaccinations - growers FORUMHOUSE like vaccination, "vprokol" or "scion Plugging in the puncture between the cotyledons rootstock" - her today and we analyze.
Fans of all experiments inoculated for everything, even for tomatoes Petunia. FORUMHOUSE user experience shows that impart cucumber makes no sense, "and so they are always a lot." Messing around with grafting tomatoes is only in one case - when the left stalk in two roots, to get a well-developed root system.

I read everything, including - the recommendations of doctors, candidates of Russian Agricultural Academy of Sciences (thesis 2005-2007.): Watermelon recommended to vaccinate lagenariyu, cucumber - on figleaf gourd, melon - a pumpkin type "Volga gray" and melon, only hybrid F1.
How to choose a rootstock
But grafting melons, indeed, it gives good results. Therefore growers Japan grown in 100% immunization melons.

I practiced vaccination watermelons, cucumbers and melons on lagenariyu, the last three years. I do not know how in the southern regions, but in the middle lane melons definitely worth vaccinate. At least for myself, I made this conclusion.

And I want in their area real Turkmen melon varieties grown. And their only method of grafting on pumpkin as possible, otherwise - do not have time to ripen.
As a rootstock watermelon, melon and cucumber is good pumpkin lagenariya (lagenaria). Growers who prescribe special Chinese rootstocks, the big difference is not noticed (especially watermelons). Good results are obtained and the Volga gray pumpkin.
How to vaccinate "in puncture"
Here's how a user FORUMHOUSE Deppert I planted on lagenarii cucumber and nods.
Vaccinations were carried out in the field, in the kitchen, almost on his knees: from wood chips was planed "hole punch" (later Deppert He disappointed in him, and took the usual toothpick and further intends to use only it).
That's "patients": overgrown already polegshy cucumber (third sheet blank) and three nods for fresh.
In here lagenarii, also slightly overgrown and began to spread.
"Punch" of chips ripped pumpkin stem, instead turned puncture incision. Deppert put it on top of the cucumber scion, who had removed all true leaves, except the top. The design was kept bad, so the place had to wrap the foil graft.
With nods to everything went with a bang! Stem lagenarii user FORUMHOUSE pierced with a toothpick. In order not to repeat the rupture of the stem, made as follows: first deepened the tip of a toothpick is strictly parallel to the stem, and then, little by removing, pierced the stem. It turned out great!
And paste nods, like clockwork: all right, with the tail out.
prototypes Deppert transplanted in a separate tray and sprayed from a spray bottle covered a large cut.
After a while forumchanin repeated the experiment: grafted cucumbers and melons. On survival it took only three days. It determined it is simple: planted still unopened cotyledons, but under the hood they are three days began to unfold. So that allegations of poor survival rate of melon on lagenariyu not confirmed.
How to plant watermelon on pumpkin
FORUMHOUSE user experience shows that graft is better to take those plants that first hatch of the seed. In the future they will be the leaders in strength of growth, beauty and health. Late for 2-3 days produced shapeless, weaker and shorter.

The strongest were those that germinated before. I planted them the same for the development of watermelon and saw that in the summer to strong lagenariya bushes were strong, and the weak - weak, they have not caught up with the strong. More last spring has come to the conclusion that many seeds germinate and choose from them the most powerful - the ones that sprout first. I do not know about other cultures, but lagenariya - so. Stem from the watermelon should match the diameter of the stem of pumpkin, then grafting watermelon on lagenariyu be successful.
To successfully instill watermelon on lagenariyu, scion recommend
sow early rootstock, explaining that pumpkin still growing faster watermelon. But in practice, it happens that the pumpkin fine rises and watermelon asleep, and then the fun begins. user Experiences
FORUMHOUSE shows that while sowing cucumbers
Watermelons are often far ahead of growth in lagenarii:

That is why I chose to be vaccinated "to puncture", where the timing of sowing will not be mistaken: you must first sow lagenariyu growing up it to two true leaves, or simply - as long as the stem of the pumpkin will not be enough thick. Once soaked and sow watermelon or what have you, in two days they are coming up on the third day, until cotyledonary leaves had not yet opened, and can be cut safely vaccinate watermelon.
Grow seedlings scion recommended with sufficient lighting and not overdo it: sooner or later, by its very nature, any melons lie on the ground and starts to crawl.
How to plant tomatoes on a petunia
When people are asked about the meaning of FORUMHOUSE vaccinations, they say, it's just fun! Therefore try the most incredible options. How to plant a watermelon on the pumpkin, we understand, now let's talk about more exotic combination of the scion and rootstock.
So, Gardener petunia planted to tomatoes. This experiment it began in June.

Objective: just I want to see how it will live one plant species to another. Prior to that, planted roses, fruit, but everything is predictable: the flower in the flower, the fruit on the fruit-bearing plants, and flower here - on the vegetable. Maybe someone in my experience seems useless folly, but I very like to watch it.
10 grafted plants survived 3, and it is those that have been vaccinated by "to split" - in a slice of tomato stem and make a slit in her set "tongue" of the cutting petunias. Here's how it looked:
Gardener
Of the six vaccinated so cheerfully and began to rise, suddenly for no reason at all three plants perish completely, scion and rootstock. Just stop growing and somehow quietly wither. Two survivors of the plants I planted in the ground in the garden, under the shelter of spunbond. This year, early and late blight attacked experienced tomatiki not spared, in one night dark and fallen leaves, flower on bare stem lasted a little longer.
Analysis of experience has shown that this fellowship is realizable in principle, although there is mutual exclusion: the tomato, petunia and develop poorly.
How to get vaccinated wedge
SvetlanaTu vaccinations watermelon on lagenariyu not vprokol and wedge. Here's what she says about this method of vaccination:

Participant FORUMHOUSE
It's simple. I am no expert, I am an amateur experimenter. Planted in a small plastic pot immediately and lagenariyu and melon. Seeds has put flat, not crack, not soaked, not heated - lagenariya grew 30 percent higher than the watermelon.
Technology priviki wedge
- Wait in the scion and rootstock cotyledon leaves both.
- 2 minute hold the blade in potassium permanganate solution.
- Make an incision in the lagenarii between cotyledonary leaves. Cut the watermelon from the cotyledonary leaves, very close to them.
- The incision is made wedge, the wedge angles of repeats formed leaves and smoothly along them.
- On lagenariyu watermelon wedge insert "leaves in the leaves": very close to each other.
Svetlana vaccination tied plastic bag - or rather, a narrow strip. It does not cover, not sprinkled, not fertilized the soil, not cleaned from the cool box. Just left the new plants to survive.
Grafting vegetables - is not such a complicated task, but requires some training. Grafting garden - more common. That's doing grafting cuttings. Here you can read about vaccinated bridge. This video explains how to to care for tomatoes in summer.
