I have hundreds of JM seed in the fridge and some of them are starting to sprout. Perhaps it is time to learn how to graft. They are all from trees and bushes in our neighborhood. Perhaps I can use some of them for root stock and others for the tops, but again, if I have a nice seedling, why do I need to graft it to something else instead of growing it on it's own roots? I know if you have to graft if you want an exact duplicate, but what if you just want a nice JM tree?
