I know fall is not even here yet, but I am getting started early. Got my buddy tape this morning. I have 3M as well, but I find Buddy Tape far more superior. It doesn’t snap off as much as 3M and holds up better.

@Dollie …
I wrap my scion in parafilm before I make the graft… example below.
Once the graft is done… i then wrap the graft union area with a couple layers of parafilm… then I finish that off by wrapping the graft union area with a couple layers of black rubber electrical tape. It is very sticky and stretches great… great hold.
I have never used buddy tape.

The only thing I don’t like about Buddy Tape is I didn’t get it sooner! So nice and smooth to work with I really love it. Especially after using the regular grafting tape.

I use the cheapest grafting tape on amazon and have had better results. buddy tape is over rated. I can buy 10 years supply with buddy tape’s price. I also noticed it buddy tape does not decompose right and grafts seem to have toxicity for a couple of years after grafting.
