I'm about to find out...I grafted twenty malthus rootsock with twenty heirloom scionwood 12 days ago. I live in midcoast Maine with temps in the 60's and 70's (this month) and good mix of rain and partly sunny days. I planted the rootstock on March 23 - 90 plus days ago. Following instructions from a friend I made cleft grafts on the
3/4" rootstock after cutting them down to 6" above the ground. The day was sunny so I worked under an umbrella taped to a bamboo pole to minimize exposure to elements.
Three days ago I noticed swelling buds and even a bit of leaf emerging from the tops of a few trees and after two days of warm rain, a very slow observable growth.
