Apple
When scraping away dead wood on my apple tree I began to dig into soft moist wood until I ended up creating a hole in the main trunk. What caused this and how can I repair the damage?

Hi Gerard Stewart . I think it's Botryosphaeria Dieback . Lets compare symptoms by clicking on green link from Plantix library. As per sent image, plant almost reached to dead stage. Better to go for new planting again.
Do you have a question too?

Looks like a bit of dieback from where a large limb was cut out. There is healthy healed cambium around the top of the old cut but the lower part never healed and moisture has got in an started a moist rot area. You can use a chainsaw to cut back to clean green wood and paint wound with a prunning paste like Greenseal, Garrison or Bacseal super. These have fungicides in them and also create a good weather seal on the wound while it heals over.
