My great grandfather would have used fresh cow dung. Anything to keep the
union from drying out. He would have plugged large gaps with balls of clay
first, however.

One time when I was to demonstrate bark grafts to students, the weather
was colder than desirable and none of us could get the grafting wax to
soften in our hands. Rather than to delay the demonstration for a
(possibly) warmer day I used Tangletrap to seal the grafts before wrapping
with parafilm. Much to my surprise all but one of several grafts took.
