Hi Bonsaiforest , mate plenty of grafts on Ausbonsai , use the search box up on the right hand top corner . Punch in Graft , thread graft . Inarch graft , root graft or any other and you will be more than accommodated with topics of how , when and where to do all sorts of grafts / grafting . No need to go to another forum , its all here on Ausbonsai if you know how to search for it .

Cheers Alpine

Thanks Alpine....Still trying to get through the 85 or so pages about grafting on AB. I was looking at images of grafting techniques on Google,for me pics really help understand the process. Clicked on the "visit page" tab and the article came up from a different forum to ours. All information is good information and I thought that this would be a great article for novices like myself. I'm not a member of bonsaitonight & am loyal to AB only. If I offended then my sincere apologies....just thought it was a good read.

Now that's a post definitely worth holding onto...Excellent source of information. Pics are an added bonus & provide a visual process to follow. Before and after shots are a winner....

I'm sure Alpine was just trying to answer your original question -
s anyone used any of the techniques of with success or if you have similar techniques with good results please share.
He is pointing out that lots of AB members do use those graft techniques and have already share their results.

I have used all those grafts, and others, at different times and mostly successfully. The more you do the better success rate you will have.

you can do search with multiple terms if you wish, or you can nested searches, Braod first then search again for a different term
