Grafting is something I’ve always wanted to try, but haven’t gotten around to yet.
That said, if you’ve got the process down, you could probably do what you’re talking about if you wanted.
I personally probably wouldn’t for a couple reasons, but I can’t think of anything super detrimental offhand if you did.
I wouldn’t just because keeping the male separate would be easier to sprinkle pollen where and when I want it, rather than the closest branches get more. Though I’m sure everything would get pollenated regardless, if it grew along the whole time.
Males are usually earlier to drop pollen, and die off when done, than the females will be, so their cycles will be slightly off.
Those are just a couple reasons, and mobility is the main one for me, but I think you could do it either way, and not go down in flames heheh
Are you good grafting already? I need to go ahead and try...
