    How Often Should I Water Them And How Much Water Is Needed? What Type Of Soil Should I Plant Them In? Also Do I Cover The Grafted Part?

    Hi,
    While they are dormant they only need watering sparingly, keep them just moist.

    When planting them, you keep the soil at the same level as it is in the pots now, add plenty of well rotted compost. they need to planted where they get maximum sun, and preferably sheltered from cold winds.

    As they grow you need to train them onto wires do not let them bear any fruit till they are 4 years old, you need to build the plant structure up , to sustain a decent crop.

    Hope this helps,

    Ashizuru.....
