Download or read book Propagation of Fruit Plants Classic Reprint written by Carl Joseph Hansen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08-25 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Propagation of Fruit Plants The numerous methods by which plants may be propagated fall into two general classes: by seeds and by vegetative propagation. With the possible exception of a few varieties, fruits do not come true from seed. Consequently, the use of seed for these plants is largely limited to the propagation of rootstocks upon which the desired varieties may be budded or grafted. Vegetative methods involve rooting some part of the parent plant, such as stem, root, or leaf, or placing part of one plant on another in such a way that it will grow. Since a portion of the parent plant is simply growing in a different location, plants propagated by vegetative methods will ordinarily be identical with the one from which the part was obtained.

Download or read book Modern Propagation of Tree Fruits Classic Reprint written by B. S. Brown and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Propagation of Tree Fruits IN preparing this little book three important factors were kept in mind. First, only to include those practices of propagation which are in general use and which are accepted by the orchardist and the commercial nursery man as being the most important. Second, to furnish in a condensed form such information on propagation as will enable the general fruit grower to follow out the practices. It is assumed that the average fruit grower has a general knowledge of the various methods of propagation, hence the many confusing details are here omitted. Third, an attempt is made to follow rather closely the methods employed by the arger commercial nurseries and to contrast these with the similar Operations of the orchard ists. The fruit grower who buys his nursery stock desires to know something of the methods whereby it is produced. The student of Horticulture needs a general knowledge of nursery work and how to apply it to either commercial or home use. It is hoped that the work is sufficiently clear that any interested fruit grower can successfully produce his own trees, thereby creating a desire to know more and to do greater things.

Download or read book Propagation of Deciduous Fruits Classic Reprint written by J. L. Stahl and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Propagation of Deciduous Fruits The question most frequently asked is, ' Why not grow all fruits and shrubs from seeds? The answer is that where improvements have been made these qualities are not transmitted through the seed but are perpetuated through the buds. Hence the necessity of using parts of the plant itself by budding, grafting, and layering. If we merely desire a peach or plum tree without regard to the variety, seeds may be used. Occasionally a variety will come true to type from the seed as does the old Heath Cling peach, but such cases are rare. In propagating fruits, therefore, seeds are used only for grow ing stock plants on which to bud or graft varieties. This is true for most tree fruits. Some stocks are profitably grown from cuttings, such as quinces, roses, grapes, and certain types of plums. The question of what kind of stocks to use even for the common deciduous fruits is a long story in itself - much too long to be narrated here with any degree of completeness. The following summary must suffice: Apple - Stocks for apples may be grown from the seeds of any variety of apple. As there is no commercial source of supply in this country aside from very limited quantities from old seedling orchards in New England referred to as Vermont crab, nurserymen procure their seeds from France and Austria. These are native seedlings known to the trade as French crab. Stock for dwarf apples consists of stool or mound layers from the Paradise apple, a natural dwarf type.

Download or read book The Seedling Inarch and Nurse Plant Methods of Propagation Classic Reprint written by George Watson Oliver and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Seedling-Inarch and Nurse-Plant Methods of Propagation While investigating the asexual propagation of some tropical fruit trees and other plants, at the request of Dr. B. T. Galloway, Chief of the Bureau of Plant Industry, it was discovered by the writer that a large number of hard-wooded shrubs and trees are capable of very rapid increase when propagated by processes which may be termed the seedling-inarch and nurse-plant methods. These methods are inexpensive and, owing to their simplicity, may be used by persons without previous experience in the propagation of plants. By these methods the ever-increasing number of plant breed ers will be enabled to save much time in determining the value of hard wooded plants raised by means of hybridization. They can be used in manipulating seedlings of rare trees and shrubs intended for crossing, so that each plant will bloom in a much shorter time than if left to grow on its own roots. Seedlings of all hard-wooded plants resulting from collections made by travelers in foreign countries may thus be brought to the flowering stage and their value determined quickly.

Download or read book Successful Fruit Culture written by Samuel T. Maynard and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Successful Fruit Culture: A Practical Guide to the Cultivation and Propagation of Fruits During the past ten or fifteen years great progress has been made in the cultivation and care of our hardy fruits and especially in the varieties grown, the methods of packing, shipping and marketing, and during this time few books have been written which have kept up with this progress. This progress and the knowledge of insect and fungous pests and their destruction has been largely recorded in scientific books and papers from the numerous experiment stations, with little from the practical and practicing fruit growers, and there is a growing need of a condensed work giving, in plain language, a summary of the scientific progress made, together with the practice of the most successful fruit growers in various sections of the country. Especially is this information needed that those just starting out in the business of fruit growing, or the village home owner who wishes to grow a small quantity of fruit for family consumption, may find in a condensed form the information necessary for success. It is, therefore, the aim of the author to make a book that is up to date in every particular and to cover the entire practice of fruit growing from the starting of the seed or cutting to the marketing of the fruit, though in many cases works devoted to special fruits may be more complete. It is written from the standpoint of the practical fruit grower who is striving to make his business profitable by growing the best fruit possible and at the least cost.
