Parafilm M JX903 Parafilm Grafting Tape, 90' Roll Clear, 1/2" Tape

This product seems legit and works well if you know what you are doing. It won't sick to itself unless you stretch it out like you are supposed to. Hopefully it will give my figs a chance to root before they dry out.

I'm new to grafting, so it took a few tries to get used to how much this tape stretches before breaking (actually quite a bit). Once I was used to working with it, it's easy. I found it's easier to work with if you warm the tape up a little in your hands before using, especially on cold spring mornings.

It’s the real grafting tape, worked good on my fig tree starts

This is not tape. This is thin and while many use it for plant grafting, I used it to temporarily seal my petri dishes. It's essentially high quality thicker saran wrap, it sticks to itself well while using no adhesive. This makes for clean and easy removal, plus it stretches so you can easily determine the amount of force you want on the objects you are mending together.

THIS SAVED MY PEACH TREE AND ALMOND BUSH. WORKS GREAT AND EASY TO USE. GREAT VALUE.

This is fine but I’ll never order it again. It doesn’t stretch very much before snapping, it doesn’t stick to the Petri dish well and it doesn’t even stick to itself very well. Pretty disappointed.

Seems to be the real deal. I'm very familiar with parafilm M, and this has the right feel and stretch. Definitely not cling-film lookalike, like a very plasticky "grafting tape" I got last year. I was a little hesitant, but I'm happy with the purchase. A little more width (3/4" maybe?) would have been nice, but I'm not desperate enough to shell out for full width lab parafilm. Good deal, overall.

UPDATE: since my review buyers responded to let me know that this parafilm adheres with heat of hands working it around the graft area. That is good for grafting. However, for what I bought it for it's not (fixing broken stem) because it would rip the stem right off if I was to keep working it with my hands. So for grafting probably it is good although I don't do grafting so I don't know. My mango tree stem broke and I repaired it temporarily with scotch tape thinking when this parafilm arrived I'd replace the tape with this--that was 2 weeks ago. Parafilm arrived late and so I decided to leave scotch tape on because scotch tape is still holding and that stem is even producing new leaves and growth. Now that the parafilm arrived I notice it doesn't adhere to itself, and I bought the wrong thing for stem repair. I was thinking since it was used for grafting that it would also be good for stem repair--I was wrong. Some buyers note it doesn't adhere, others say it does. I assume those that say it doesn't adhere are like I was thinking it would be like tape. GOOD NEWS I clicked on RETURN and it said to just keep the product, however, I haven't much use for clear PLANT TIES I prefer to see where I've tied my plants.

Too expensive for so little tape, but this is in fact real Parafilm, not garbage saran wrap which is useless for grafting. This tape stretches and molds itself to conform to surfaces and forms a tight seal, and doesn't peel off of itself where it is wrapped over itself.

This roll of polyolefin with wax worked perfectly for my grafting every time. Very hard to find this anywhere as most places are selling saran wrap and claiming it is grafting tape. I just use this first then cover with electrical tape sticky side out so electrical tape can be removed later and grafting tape will fall off on its own as the branch grows. If the seller reads this hopefully they can get some more in stock so I can reorder.

It works well for propagation

I bought this for grafting apple and crabapple trees and it worked as well as can be expected. It was a very windy summer and this tape held all grafts together with no failures. Pros - Flexible and stretchy enough to do the job. - Held all grafts in place with winds up to 100 kph. - Didn't require extra string or sealants to hold the grafts. Cons - Seems like it could be a little tackier, but still held well once pressed together. - Price is very steep for what it is.

This is not 228,6 meters as the title suggest, it's 90 feets which equals to about 27 meters
