I am a novice grafter. I have not done many grafts as I am just graft 
occasionally for my own orchard. However, what I am getting from this 
discussion about techniques is that for easy fruits like apple, the 
technique itself may not matter as much as the comfort level of the 
practitioner. In other words, the key is the matching up of the cambium. 
Whatever is easy for an individual will probably work.

But for more difficult situations such as grafting pawpaws, jujubes, nut 
trees, what are the best techniques for overall success? Is there a 
difference in overall success among techniques?
