Grafting supplies, best place to buy?
Comments (25)strudeldog, I've never used the Parafilm Grafting Tape - have seen photos of it, and thought that it looked different - thicker than the old standby Parafilm M that I've been acquainted with and have worked with for over 30 years. The manufacturer's description is that the Grafting Tape is a different formulation (higher olefin content?) - perhaps that's why it doesn't stretch as much as Parafilm M. The unstretched Parafilm - whether M or GT won't just stick to itself, the way you're trying in your video - it has to be stretched to 'activate' it; as you're wrapping around the stock or union, it seals to itself pretty nicely. I don't try to stretch the whole piece at once, but stretch it a little at a time, as I'm wrapping around and around, allowing it to adhere to itself as I work my way up the scion and back down again. Have a look at the linked video below - looks like they're using Parafilm M Here is a link that might be useful: budding with Parafilm...See MoreBest Place to Buy Poinsettias

Sometimes I see bloom more than once per year. That's the winter-blooming types, the spring (Easter) cactus and the orchid cactus - forget it. The first I would bother with putting outside if I was that ardent about getting flowers, the second clearly wants to be in a greenhouse....See MoreBest place to buy shades (Roman, cellular) at a good value price
Comments (6)There's a Lowes nearby, so that will be convenient. My windows are single and double crank outs so not that wide. I'll check it out. Do you recall what time of year they run the discounts? Sometimes places run specials right after Labor Day because that's usually a dead time for people to shop....See MorePicture frame window- solar/insulation window film
Comments (3)You can do a DIY install but it is not something we recommend, particularly if you like the view. DIY installs are always dirty and take much longer than you think. LLumar Select Pro dealers meet the highest standards in the industry and have access to the best technology and widest range of products available to meet your needs.
