Grafting in grapevines starts by cutting a strong root (rootstock) and attaching a healthy vine that produces good grapes (scion). The two pieces are carefully joined and sealed to protect them while they heal. Over time, the graft point heals and the two parts grow together as one plant. This process helps the vine by protecting it from soil diseases, adapting to different types of soil, improving the quality of the grapes, and making the vine live longer and stay productive. 🎥@vitigreffe . .

Why multiple rootstocks are important to fruit trees? Roots absorb water and minerals from the soil that flows to the trunk, branches, and leaves that feed the tree. That's why roots are essential. Putting additional roots also adds additional nutrients and minerals to the recipient tree. A tree with more than one rootstock is more resistant to disease, unaffected by drought, has better anchorage that can withstand strong wind during a monsoon, storm, or even typhoon. I called it a MULTIPLE ROOT
