Grafting Wax

Great thread i have plenty of experience and suggestions. Came up with a method that works well for me most of the time which is garden tape and parafilm over that. Use it on clefts, whip and tonque etc… use the other methods mentioned less frequently since our weather changed in Kansas somewhat. Used pruning seal and grafting wax for years but then we started having warmer springs and i began having grafting fails. The wax or seal melted sonetimes between the scion and rootstock and caused me problems. The method is great but my climate hasn’t been for a few years. This is what im doing now and i use modeling clay if i need it because it does not melt like others but still works. It is more expensive Grafting large Callery and BET pear rootstocks in 2022
