Can some one tell me what to do with what I know I must never do and
that is to cut into growing wood. Careless I know and I've been
maintaining two vine plants for over 10 years, but how do I stop it
leaking watery sap at really rather an alarming rate ?
I've tried CA glue, and special rubbery electrical tape to no avail.

If the diameter of the branch is big enough, use a hose (jubilee) clip
and tighten until the sap stops. The vessels leaking the sap are just
below the bark, and compressing them with a clip shouldl stop the flow.
