Just an update. I cleaned up the scion, cut all the woke up stuff out. Wrapped it all back up and put it in a colder garage fridge at my parents. As of now, if i graft well i should have a shot at all the varieties.

Ok, I thought you were going away on the trip this week so they'd be sitting in the box until you got back?

Correct they are in the fridge on there own for a week. So you do have somebody you trust lined up to get them in the fridge? I've heard some horror stories in the past of people going away and coming back to a mess.

Yes. The rootstock. Good deal. Tell your dad that there's a bunch of Habitat guys counting on him to make sure nothing happens to that box.
