Describe the differences between One-year-old Wood and Permanent Wood
One-year-old Wood: shoots turn woody during the winter after they have grown. The following spring, they become One-year-old wood and the buds formed on them will grow into new shoots.
Permanent Wood: this is more than one year old and is made up of the trunk (and arms).
Name two grafting techniques and describe them.
Bench Grafting: short sections of cane are joined together and stored in warm environment to encourage the fusion between the parts.

Head Grafting is used to switch to a new grape variety within an established vineyard.
