[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1002475, member: 694"] Dad used to graft for people all the time I have watched him countless times. I remember the grafting procedure but not the timing as that was very important to the sucesss as well. He would cut a vee in the bottom sprig and a wedge in the top place them together and wrap tightly with cotton string. The he would cover the string with wax. The string went several inches above and below the graft for support, the wax was the new temporary bark until it healed. Seen him graft pecan to hickory as well. He would start the spring's off in 5 gallon bucket's and tend to them until the next spring before planting. [/QUOTE]
