So i was defoliating this maple and thought while I was at it I may as well re-do a failed thread graft. I then thought why not do another one further down to correct the inverse taper the trunk has.... I was wondering if anyone else has tried this and has it worked??
#1 graft is the re-done one and
#2 is the one I'm hoping will thicken the trunk section below it.
The red arrows show the direction of exit and am hoping the lowest graft will thicken the section of trunk below it like the sacrifice branch has on the lowest right branch on the tree already:
