Total newbie here ✌️
I succesfully grafted a couple of ‘modern’ large-cherry branches onto an old healthy cherry tree – with delicious, but very small fruit.
Now I am unsure if I should remove the side branches below the graft to give the grafted part all the energy or leave them on to keep the branch alive… what would you do?
My plan is to do a couple of these grafts on the lower branches every year and let the top of the tree stay as it is for the birds.
Also: When should I remove the plastic?
