Default Grafting two cannabis strains

i have a few trees and bushes in my yard that were grafted by my wife's great grandfather, and was thinking, can you graft two or more strains of weed together to make a super-mother for clones? theoretically you could have one plant that produces cuttings for several different strains. opinions?

sounds a little advanced for myself, maybe someone such as yourself should give it a shot. i dont have the space as of yet to even worry about having a super mother

It should work but be warned, since marijuana stems aren't that woody so by nature the wound will be more open to infection and rot. Your best bet it to check out a Bonsai forum for information on the process. Oh and pick up some Kiyonal Grafting & Pruning Compound and raffia. Those and a sharp razor blade will be all you need. I used to do grafting all the time when I did Bonsai and that stuff worked very well. I would go into more detail but it's been years since I have grafted so best just to research it...

ive done it! i have a mother plant that has 5 kinds of kind on it! I took my strongest indica (grows roots like a mofo) and made small 45 degree cuts into the branches (use brainches that are big enough to cut 2-3 mm into without cutting more than halfway through. Its best to do this near the end of the branch so you can bag it later. Dip the cutting in clone solution, and slide it in. Put a wet paper towel or something similar (folded up) in a clear bag big enough to cover the branch you are cloning. Cover the branch, with the paper towel in it (so the humidity will stay constant) spray the inside of the bag with a mister. Tape or tie the bag on so its sealed, and then wrap this with shade cloth or something similar so the inside of the bag doesnt get too hot. 2-3 weeks later you can take the bag off and it should be grafted well. I did this successively so now i only have one mother. You can also graft Hopps onto your plant- and when it grows out and is ready for harvest, the hopps will have THC in it. Then you can make weed beer! Good luck everyone!

I read in one of my beer making books that people have crossed hops with weed. It makes sense since hops is a close relative of Cannabis Sativa. Just think, a bud that contains THC, CBC and Lupulin. I have been thinking about trying to cross some good weed with some hops to make a really kick ass Ale. I was thinking about trying to pollinate some hops buds with some weed pollen and growing the seeds to get the hybrid cross. Grafting sounds like that might be a better option. Where can i find more info on grafting??? If i did try the pollination method, would it be better to use weed pollen and pollinate the hops buds or use hops pollen to pollinate marijuana buds for seeds to make a hybrid cross strain???

The exparaments first done on grafting marijuana to hops were a disaster. It can be done but you get nothing of use from it, for either smokers or brewers. Cross pollination won't work, been tried before as well and marijuana doesn't even respond to the pollen. They are not CLOSE relatives genetically, they can graft but it's useless.
