I do the same but Parafilm snaps easily, and then I end up using more than I am suppose to. I got this monster rool that is 2" wide, makes it harder to work with.

To circumvent the issue of having 2 inch wide parafilm....roll the tape up, until it winds up to a size that's just large enough to fit in your pruning shears...then cut in half, and you'll have two one inch rolls.

OK Folks, order is ready to ship from manufacturer warehouse. All payments cleared. I will post here as soon as I receive the delivery. I will need each of you who was/is interested to PM me your mailing addresses so I can ship to all the same day I receive it.

Thanks for making it happen. without pooling, it was not possible. Good news is that this tape is fresh, just received in US out of new batch.

Don't know why I did not see this earlier, but if you are still one short (or have an extra roll). I'd take one.

Thanks,
Richard

Hi Adam, yes paypal would be the best way to pay, but wait until I receive the delivery. I will request you all once I have it in my hands.

OK, here is the list of interested folks, what I could gather from posts/replies: Please reply if I Missed anyone!
edself65 Ed – 1 roll
Anikulapo Adam – 1 roll
CoPlantNut Kevin – 1 roll
Tim Tim – 1 roll
Rtreid Richard – 1 roll
behlgarden Behl – 1 roll

Total 6 rolls. That makes 2 spare rolls. Anyone else want to grab this opportunity? Its a great price and add the fact that its for non-profit to help the group out. Those holding onto Parafilm, here is your chance to listen to grafting pros (Adam) and get one of these.

Anyone else? Need two more folks. Tapes already paid for and should arrive within a few days in CA, then shipped out to everyone.

"Buddy Tape" is super expensive!  I buy the parafilm by the box (6 rolls) for less than $20!  I have never had any issues with parafilm and have been using it for years.  Dont take my word for it, others like Jeff have also used Parafilm.  Sometimes you cant always guide yourself by the "hype".  Just my two cents.  :)

You can get a box of Parafilm 1 INCH (6 rolls per box) from Oesco:

OK Folks,  Buddy Tape is here! If you have not PM me your mailing addresses, please do so ASAP so I can ship.

On Parafilm vs Buddy Tape, there is no comparison Period! One has to use both to see results. I have parafilm M (new fresh stock), my experience with Parafilm has been very bad! It does not expand with the union, instead it cracks and destroys the union! My parafilm scions most of them have died, the only ones that made it were Cherimoya that were tightly cleft grafted and wrapped with tape that was other than parafilm.

Here is the picture of box of 8 rolls that I got. I used it today and boy does it stretch! Very nice! Thanks to Adam to bringing it up to my attention.

Also, if you already paid, please ensure I know who you are. I will need to tie/confirm your email address to tropical group names.
