I messed up bad this weekend. I had a large limb on a mature apple tree that has been growing up right next to the leader. Finally decided to fix this by pulling it down and putting a board between the limbs to hold it. I figured it was warm enough to do this so I pulled the limb down with a tow strap and a come along and left it over night. The next morning I went out to find the limb had cracked badly away from the tree. Is there any fix for this? How should I protect the tree?
