Hi friend,
Grafting is the technique to grow plants in order to transfer tissues from one plant to another. Usually it is a fast process. The upper part of the final plant is called scion and the root part is called stock.
_______________________________________________________________
disadvantages:-
1.grafting is very complex process of vegetative propagation .one has the skill and knowledge about like how to successfully graft a plant.
2.In order to graft a scion over a stock we have to find a scion which will fit into the stock or at least in the shape in which they fit together .so to do so we have to do a great work.
3.there is not 100% success if we do this process of reproduction. Like if we do this type of vegetative propagation .it is possible that one plant scion cant compatible with another plant stock.
4.grafting can only be done when plant is dormant like in late winter to early spring. And usually we graft in same genus .so that is not sure we can do grafting in any plant.
______________________________________________________________
Advantages:-
1.one plant can attain another plants characteristics. Like diseases resistance and hardness.
2.when we practice grafting in order to natural reproduction. We get results very fast i.e. grafting is a fast process of reproduction.
3.we can choose like what height we want i.e. we can get short apple tress if we practice grafting.
4.like we got output of stem as scion that would be cut out or not in use.

The two terms - Scion and Stock are used in grafting process.
Scion refers to the short bit of confined shoot containing a few torpid buds whereas Stock depicts to the more drawn-out part of the plant which is settled to the soil by its root framework.
Advantages of grafting method:
- It is the main technique to protect the required qualities of seedless hybrids.
- Providing resistance to pest and soil disease is the most vital advantage of grafting process.
It offers protection from microscopic organisms, infections and soil nematodes.
It is a spotless option in the control of ailments, for example, contagious and bacterial shrink, tobacco mosaic infection, root knobs delivered by nematodes, and plugged root or red root among others.
- It makes another plant being an innovation of enhancement quicker than traditional techniques.
- It enhances the resistances to unfriendly factors (saltiness, need or an overabundance of dampness), appeasing the proficient utilization of water and supplements, and additionally postponing cell maturing because of root force, speeding up of regenerative development of seedlings, and protection from dry season.
