How can you make a mini chamber for forcing grafted vines dry to the table? A small forcing chamber for about 50 grafted vines can be made from a plastic storage box and sawdust or soil for seedlings.

The box must be at least 40 cm long in which the cuttings will be placed horizontally. The ideal is a box of at least 40 cm in height so that the cuttings are placed vertically.

The box can be purchased from https://l.profitshare.ro/l/9980629

The cuttings are placed in the humidification. Ideally at 10 degrees for rootstock for 4 days. If the humidification is done at 20 degrees, the duration decreases to 2 days. The grafts are placed between 12-16 hours at a temperature of 20 degrees.

Treat the vines with a fungal solution by soaking them in it for 1-2 hours to avoid the development of mold or rot.

After letting them drain so that they are no longer wet, the vines are grafted using various methods:

Grafting with omega pliers:    • Altoirea vitei de vie cu cleste pentru altoit

The vines are paraffined. The wax used is taken from https://bit.ly/3CEs1oH

Then moisten the sawdust or substrate so that by squeezing it strongly in your hand it squeezes water but no drops of water drip. Use fine sawdust from softwood (linden, willow, poplar, softwood) or a substrate for sowing and rooting.

The substrate for sowing and rooting can be purchased from https://l.profitshare.ro/l/9980640

Paper all the walls of the box with a layer of a few cm then place the cuttings next to each other as compactly as possible in several layers.

Finally, cover the box and add a heat source halfway with the cuttings. The heat source can be a radiator or a mat or electric blanket. Such a mat is https://l.profitshare.ro/l/9980729

For 5 days, a temperature of 30 degrees is maintained. The box is ventilated daily to inhibit the appearance of rot. Then the temperature is lowered and maintained at 24-25 degrees for up to 3 weeks from the date of grafting.

The temperature can be controlled with a thermometer with an external sensor. The one used is available at: https://l.profitshare.ro/l/9446657

The first thing you need to see before asking yourself the question of correct pruning of the vine, especially if you are a beginner, is to choose the type of pruning and management appropriate for the grape varieties you have:
