I know it has been posted before, but it's worth repeating:  Whether you 
have new benchgrafts which are slow to leaf out this spring, or grafts from 
last year which didn't grow much, please just wait.  They may surprise you 
if given time.  I have several grafts which grew more in their second spring 
than their entire first year, and some benchgrafts this spring which barely 
grew until I was away for a long weekend.
