Oh, Lord, another rabbit hole to disappear down...
I’m hoping to top work some Bradford pears with some scion wood from a friend’s pear trees. I’ve been watching YouTube videos of the process, and been wondering on timing both of collecting scion wood, and doing the actual grafts. I’m at the edge of zones 5-6, so I’ll be getting the cuttings soon and refrigerating them. When should I top the trees that I’m planning to use as rootstock? In advance, or day of? Also I use Titebond 2 wood glue for various projects- would it be adequate for a graft sealant?
