Grafted Vegetable Plants

Grafted plants are strong and vigorous, so we recommend feeding your plants from when the first flower buds appear. Use a fertiliser that contains high levels of potash and feed once a week to start with, increasing to twice a week when the plant is cropping well. Most grafted plants will need some support as they grow, especially tomatoes and aubergines. Ensure the support used is strong enough to bear the weight of the plant – thick bamboo canes tend to do the job well.

Although traditionally greenhouse grown, we have found over the last few years that plants, if properly hardened off and placed in a warm, sunny position, will crop well outside too – even more reason to grow them! Some varieties can even reach 3m in height if given the space!

Please note: do not remove the plastic grafting clip; it will fall off naturally as the plant grows. If growing in containers, the minimum size pot that is suitable is 12ltr. If using a grow bag, plant a maximum of two plants per bag. The grafted union must be kept above the soil level to ensure suckers and adventitious roots do not develop.
