Default Knot Question

Hi all

I am trying to encourage an apple tree in a certain direction by
gradually pulling it over.
There is a copper beach tree nearby to act as the anchor for the
rope tie.

What I need is a knot that can take up slack as I pull hard to
bend the tree.


No, you don't.
What you *need* is O level physics.


Anyone understand what I am trying to achieve and suggest the
appropriate knot please?

Thanks

Phil
