Grafting method in which a V-wedge is made in the side of the stub, about 5 cm (2 in.) long. Two cuts are made, coming together at the bottom and as far apart as the top as the width of the scion. These cuts extend about 2 cm (3/4 in.) deep into the side of the stub. After these cuts are made, a screwdriver is poundered downward behind the wedge chip, leaving a V opening for insertion of the scion. The base of the scion is trimmed to a wedge shape exactly the same size and shape as the opening. With the two vascular cambium layers matching, the scion is tapped downward firmly into place and slanting outward slightly at the top so that the vascular cambium layers cross.
