Grafted Japanese white pine

[Hannes]

Hi everyone

I’m from South Africa and wants to know is it possible to bend a thick branch with a jack now or do I need to wait till beginning of fall? Tree still pushing now growth…

Not the best quality material to start with.

Looks like pretty fantastic material! I think that waiting until fall would be best. Letting the tree grow foliage now will help it recover after the heavy bends.
