personally im more interested in the genetics of marijuana -- i.e. i cant wait till they develop strawberries with THC in them. or even tobacco that contains THC. you know you want it...

Plant Genus's and divisions are too diverse almost every one works a different way.The strawberry may work as in there is a remote chance.The tomato,no fucking way Im sorry bro but it isnt going to happen.If you could keep it on life support long enough it would herm immediately.Thanx for the thread it has me thinking!!!!
 
cool! keep posting pics as it gets bigger. i wanna see the different buds on this thing. im not having any luck w/ the grafting branches. my room is real cold this time of year so i may try again in a few months when temps are more controlable.

and i dont know about herming immediately.
 
i dont believe youll have a herm issue as long as you had strict controls. start growing the species of plant along with your mother plant and then take your clone and implant it into your host plant . both will have been in veg and will continue in veg until you see that it has taken or you determine that it will not take. so you really havent upset its life cycle at all. i think i will try this with another herb though like oregano or basil because both of those eventually flower and create seeds . thats where i think youll find your real results . if the seeds it produces grow a hybrid plant.
 
They might just have separate roots too... Wish they rooted in perlite you could have washed it off and got a better look

Ok youve got my attention.

Ive considered this but due to the lack of my growing knowledge & experience Ill try it when I have developed the necessary skills in the mean time Im keeping a close eye on this grow journal, keep going my friend.
 
i have the plant/s in a 3" rockwool cube now waiting to go into dwc. i cant tell if the grafting has worked. all three stems are very healthy and dont seem to be competing the way i will tell is later during flower the gdp turns purple , the hindu is shorter and fatter and the ak47 will grow tall also the leaves of the ak are very distinct from the other two so i will watch for the leaves to look either alike or different .
 
i wont know until later if the graft took in the pics its hard to tell if the roots are seperate or one but in person up close it appeared that the roots all came from one central ball . so i now have to wait and see if the plants start to have similar charecteristics or if they keep their own genetics
 
isnt that just joining them at the rootball.. i thought grafting was putting a cutting on a sliced limb and joining them with tape or something
 
true grafting is traditionally done by slicing and inserting a cutting to a mother but i am just experimenting with this method.. it will take at least 15 weeks. my thinking before this was that ....... IF the clones share a root ball that has bonded biologicaly than the plant should"(should)" share genetic material i dont know but am going to find out.

The only way they will share genetic material is if one produces pollen and populates the other.

It is possible to graft lemons onto an orange tree. The lemons still taste like lemon and the orange still tastes like orange.

Grafting is not genetic splicing, just a plant survival technique.
