When there's a power outage try to put the plants by a window and turn any light on on your room.

Its actually a propagation technique called layering.

i totally agree with you kinda pointless as far as yeild or bud quality, but i sure would like to know if it would root...

you have my vote bro DO IT!!

I dont think the plant will root from the top like that. it is worth a try. i also know the root system goes hand in hand with plant growth...you would essentially achieve the same results in a single pot. a root system is a network- it doesnt matter if they are together or apart, results should be similar.

dude u just blew my fucking mind.

i asked this same question a while ago ..somebody told me to just take a clone it would be more efficient ..but i say DO IT !!! i want to see how it will turn out i might do it on my next grow just for the fuck of it

Layering...

You should start with air layering and then once you have roots stick it in the ground.

yeah how does air layering work?

Of course. Great way to start clones without increasing plant count.

Thats realy kool. You would want to put a bag around an mj plant thow would u?

"Many plants are lost in the final stage of the process because the root system is not sufficiently developed to sustain the top portion of the new plant. By utilizing the plastic tent illustrated in figure 8 or by keeping the new plant in a humid environment, it is possible to develop a good root system on rather large cuttings. Once the plant is well established, it is best to harden off the foliage by gradually exposing it to normal atmosphere. This can be done by cutting a few holes every few days in the plastic tent to reduce the humidity until it is similar to the external atmosphere."

So...if you need one, use one. But it's not required.
