[IBC] Thread Graft Separation
After I cut the branch part going into the drilled hole (after the graft
has taken), is it best to leave the newly grafted branch grow strongly, unpruned, or would that put too much energy demand on the newly grafted area, and I should keep the growth in check?

Jim,
On any graft, I would let it grow for a season at least. If you try to keep the graft restrained you run the risk of not having it take. You can always keep the branch restrained later.

On my one successful thread graft, once it took, I treated it like a normal branch & it was fine.
