The ends are still bonded but the middle has been pushed up by the core as it dried, will this still work?

    It should but might be slower to take off

    Maybe you could regraft it if you really want the graft but it could take with no problems and fuse there later on

    Agree with the other commenters! The scion did take, but as it swells up it might push itself off since the bond isn’t as strong. Great chance it will be just fine, though! Can always re-graft if it pushes off.

    See how the vascular ring from the rootstock has pushed up revealing the wood? The place you grafted to is mature. Pulling grafts off on older mature woody growth is harder (but not impossible). Success rates are higher on fresh young growth (closer to the rootstock tip).

    50%-50%. The scion might have started rotting, can’t tell, give it time. Sometimes they only create a union on part of it, yet that’s enough.
