Is there an update to see what this tree looks like in a year or so? Would kind of help to see what it looks like post op

A closeup when doing the bark trim etc would be more than somewhat useful and expected of a well produced video.

Thank you for a great video. Is the scion wood harvested earlier in the year? Any recommendation on what time of the year to do tree grafts? Be well!

What will happen with nail? Do we need to pluck them out after some time or keep them there as they are?

I have a bigger trunk. Can I add two scions on the cut? And cut the other direction for two more scions?

Where is the end result? Graft didn't work?

My neibor just cut a healthy 20 ft maples down for "reasons" but i was wondering if i grafted 3 pieces into the stump and wove them together when they got large enough would the tree strangle it self out? I dont want a tree with a big V where the limbs rot and fall off but i figures if i pointed them all inward and wove the 3 together it would grow strait up and would also have a cool base when it gets older.

I have a Pin Oak about 15 feet tall that was planted by the previous property owner. I don't like Pin Oaks. Can I graft on a Red or White Oak to the Pin Oak? I would eventually trim off all the Pin Oak branches below the graft as it grew and aged. Is that possible???

[RobCalhounPGH]

Interesting. But why cut mature and graft? To add a new variety and take advantage of the established growth?

[bennym]

So what were he from and to ? Follow up video ?

[knotman]

Doesn't show enough detail with close-up photos.

Do you have to remove the other limbs? Can't you graft into a tree and not only keep the tree as root stock?

May I graft an apple branch into a cottonwood tree?

[joannsmith]

I don't understand the graft thing... why would you cut a healthy branch to put a graft back on ? and what does it look like 6 months later, one month later? etc.

[slapaway]

2:45 why do you teach people to sit on a branch while holding and working with that saw? This is how you get accidents

[ernieolson]

Thanks for wearing that Aggie shirt. So we know where to send you when you get lost.

Quien filmó que se dedique a otra cosa, por favor.

It must be better pictures if he had a go-pro on his forehead

A more zoomed in would be beneficial to the viewer learner 😢
The cameraman is not experienced, what a disaster.. 😢😢

Hello question is it possible to make a Giant tree like the prehistoric cut down trees all over the world Brazil, United States, Canada, for the most part there tree had been at least 15000 feet tall earth, oxygen level 50% more oxygen in the air. I wonder who cut these trees down and why they were massive they were real there's a building in Pompeii, dedicated to the artwork of tree put in to frescoes on the walls and floors depicting at least six cities around the world in these trees. Only four stumps have been found cities put into the artwork of the uncovered city of Pompeii did show giant trees with civilizations living in them and smaller cities hanging from the larger branches below, so I was wondering does science in humanity know the species of the tree trees that they have might've been and investigated why they were so big, and if the earth could ever see them again, one tree was talked about in the story of the epic of Gilgamesh, and the epic of Gilgamesh was written 36, 000 years ago so not that I'm making this up. I just wanna learn more about what these trees were and why they were chopped down scientist do say that if these trees were in fact growing on earth today, humanity probably would be a lot bigger due to the oxygen in the atmosphere, just a question hope they gave enough information to get a good answer for scale of the tree the umbrella of the tree was about 50 miles across or more well the trunk was said to be 15, 000 feet or more into the sky OK thanks for your time
