Full StoryHas anyone tried this? Where I live its fairly windy and regardless of how much I thin the fruit trees (especially the peach trees) the wind always seems to get the better of at least 1-2 branches- in some cases the entire tree. So I was going to attempt brace grafting on my already established trees. On my younger peach trees, I was thinking about planting them closer together (within 5 feet) and grafting the branches to each other. Generally I'd plant three trees in a group and graft the branches from the trees to develop a stronger support. Has anyone tried this? Any recommendations on how to proceed?
