Thanks for the tip I won't graft the paw paw trees but the others I will be grafting

I plan on growing out my own rootstock eventually but I want to get some of the longer maturing fruit trees in the ground like paw paws cherries and peaches and then work on establishing my own mini nursery.

Hi there I am in the process of buying a property and want to get started planting fruit trees right away. It I am trying to keep costs down so I am going to graft my own fruit trees by whip and tongue grafts. My plan was to do the grafts indoors in December/January to allow time to heal and then plant out in Febuary has anyone had success doing this? I am in zone 8a just outside of Seattle, the company I am ordering the root stock from send them out at about 1/4" caliper
