Title: Bark Grafting Mango Tree
Post by: durai on February 29, 2016, 11:02:51 PM

What to do with the sap coming out while doing bark grafting
on a mango tree branch.  Will it be okay to tape the budwood
and branch with the sap?  Will appreciate your advice.

I've done some bark grafting with mango and I wiped up the sap before taping. I've had a couple failed mango bark grafts which I attribute to the sap blocking cambium contact so I would make sure to clean up all sap before taping.
