Stop apologizing for being brief. You said what needed to be said and showed what needed to be shown. Longer videos will end up being fluff and people will be discouraged from watching
Hey Luke, at what time it is recomended to graft, I mean; the age of the plants.
Also, I have seen that someone uses a kind of hormones or vitamines, what do you think or know about it? And finally what about sanitation? thanks
i have once before I think I sent this to ur inbox in steed…the longer u let them ripen the better!

Does It create new varieties,Or improve harvest ….?
The reason for doing this?
Thanks!
just know my stuff about veggies and so they gave me that nickname haha
Holy Crap I had no idea you could do this! Wish I had some garden space left to give it a try, there’s always next year though. Thanks for the excellent idea.
How did you get the nickname Pepper? Were you hotter than a pepper sprout as a kid?
I have seen this in a fair in Manila in the 90’s, they grafted a pepper plant onto an eggplant root. The plant was massive almost a tree and held several pounds peppers with different stages of development.
one of your best videos
Or maybe just a thick furry stalk. 😉
Luke get some sleep man! You can’t grow much if you die of exhaustion. Well you can push up some daisies.
Great video. I have seen it done a few times and seen that Territorial is shipping them. I haven’t tried it myself yet. I look forward to seeing how it works for you. I hope you keep a control of a celebrity and the others to show how they did for you.
That’s awesome.
very cool
☺☺☺
what would your opinion be about grafting sweet 100’s cherry tomato plant to golden boy tomato plant?
great video Luke maybe I will try this next year

Great video! Very interesting stuff!
I just squeeze ate the base and twist off. These are the suckers , you are talkin’ about . Right.
with a sharp knife==cut the sucker off in the V formed by branches,,,when they are real small you can pinch them off with thumb and index finger,,,you really don’t want to cut too many off,,because they provide shade for the fruits later on this summer,,
if they’re little tiny leaves you can just pinch them off. If they’ve become bigger I’d cut them off with a knife or scissors. You want to get the suckers because they drain energy from the fruit.
