This I have not been doing with persimmon and really needs be checked out. I'd almost have to use past experience as a control group. Am still grafting and will try a few. Biggest problem will be remembering to pinch off the nurse limbs new sprouts.Jerry, I've been doing a few(less than 6) persimmons in this manner this year, and results have not been very good - though the scionwood I used for a couple of the grafts was of questionable viability - small amounts of a kaki variety from a friend in PA, and I'm thinking it must have gotten fried during the winter, before it was cut. As is the case with scions grafted onto a single stem, you've got to check those 'nurse limbs' almost daily to keep vigorous shoots pinched back.
Persimmon likes to send out new growth.
