Does anyone know of any science or had personal experience that it works? That is a notch cut above a bud will cause that bud to grow out or a notch below a branch will reduce the vigor of that branch. Does it work on both old and new wood? What time of the year would it be done? I can find information on the internet on how to do it, but nothing beyond that.

 

  With Thanks
