Grafting to speed propagation

[bonzo]

Has anyone ever tried to graft marijuana onto any other type of rootstock? I'm curious if the grafting of marijuana to other rootstocks would increase the percentages? If grafting two different rootstocks be beneficial for hardiness?

There's a few threads on that, bottom line it sounds fun but all you end up with are two different plants growing off the same roots but with no apparent effect towards each other. You could grow a multitude of different strains off the same plant. Haven't found any real use for that.

I think people try it to make a super mother plant. One plant that can produce clones or seeds for multiple strains.
But agree, I don't think that's particularly useful in practice.

Yeah I considered doing it to my mama atf but that's Jedi skills right there plus the space needed, not in my league yet

I was hoping to start vegetative growth early since it did not have to build its own root system. Roots that grow in the native Earth would be able to process nutrients and not have burning issues. I would almost bet that pest problems would deteriorate also.

I am looking for someone that's a lot better grower than I am to try out this theory though. If you could kill all the parent plant after your graft heels I'm hoping to not have two plants competing against each other.

I would really like everyone's idea on the subject positive and negative I don't want to go into this half cocked

I'm with you Lucky but I thought you had "acres" of space

I sure don't I was hoping this would be my bird in the hand. Like I save you think of anything crazier not let me know

The Brit and the frenchie haggling each other, our ancestors started wars on smaller crap than these you know! 😂😂😂 The Acres are the goal, the shed is the pedestal
