The invention discloses a
grafting method for Castanea mollissima
dwarfing, which comprises the steps of collecting scions, treating the scions, determining
grafting time, carrying out a
grafting method, providing management after grafting,
pruning trees, and
pruning branches by pulling. Robust branches are collected from a robust scion mother tree to serve as scions; 2- to 10-year-old big trees of Castanea mollissima which grow vigorously are used as rootstocks; grafting is carried out from late February to early and middle March, and after grafting,
shoot removal, unbinding, watering fertilization and pest and
disease control are carried out; when the scions grow to more than 80 cm,
pruning is carried out, piling on the ground is carried out, and
branch-pulling pruning is carried out using a
rope so that the crown of trees is expanded and is cultured in heart shape or a spherical shape; in second year after grafting, flowering and fruiting can occur to form an early-fruiting and
dwarfing fruiting forest of Castanea mollissima is formed. The
grafting method has the advantages that grafting
survival rate is high, the forest form is neat, trees of Castanea mollissima can be effectively dwarfed, the risk of unsafe harvesting of large and high trees is decreased, the requirement on constructing a low-yield forest of Castanea mollissima is met, and good economic benefit, social benefit and ecological benefit are provided.
