Grafting

Phoenix, AZ

When doing a graft the stock plant (bottom part with roots ) is sending off shoots. Should they be removed ? For some reason I believe the shoots are takin energy away from the graft is this true.

Suckers will take away from your plant. It doesn't sound good that you are having suckers below a graft, hopefully your root stock is healthy. Yes, do remove suckers.
