This spring I whip and tongue grafted several pears on Betulifolia
pear rootstock.  About 2/3 of the grafts have leafed out fine but several
do not look like they will "take."  We have had many days in the mid
to upper 80's.  At what point should I stop pinching the growth below
the graft to encourage budding?  Is it recommended to regraft next year?
Can I rework the tops with my refrigerated scion wood now?
