Two plants in one!

Here is an experiment. Take your clones, scrape off one side of each stem, put together and put through a small piece of fish air tube and then into you medium. I'll know in a few days if this works.
I used to graft one clone onto another in a similar way. This method works. Cannabis can be grafted easily to make a circus plant (Circus mothers). If you just want a stronger root stock you can cut away the bottom half of one and the top half of the other. My idea was to take a 12 week strong rooting plant and attach it to a 8 week plant that grew crap root stocks. It worked.

There are some brilliant ideas floating around in here!
I don't think I want to donut with the current clones and plant I have now as it was a pain to get them and just as I gave up on gettig then a different friend just randomly gave them to me lol.
I may cut clones of my mother plant an leave the clones to grow but we will see.
What this topic brings to mind is if you can graph a marijuana plant to a completely different type of plant(like a tree or something in the backyard).
Would be an incredible way to grow in a very discreet way. I live on my on now so if that works it would suck I didn't know earlier so I wouldn't have been caught by my dad growing in his house when I was younger :p

Also if that works would it take on the growth rate of the host plant? If so there may be a way to grow some excessively quick outdoors during the summer(and don't lie, whether you grow hydro or organics indoor you know outdoors is incredible and always produces much more than indoor)

Yes you can graft branches of different strains onto a single existing cannabis plant. If you are sticking to plant quantity limits and want 10 different strains that only count as one plant this might be for you. Otherwise, it's quite hard to do and not very feasible. It is however very possible.

This is the old 'Can I graft cannabis onto a hops plant to make cannabeer' thread basically....

You could just put a grow bag into a burlap sack and strap it onto a tree near the top like everyone else. It would be a lot easier than trying to graph a pot plant onto anything but a pot plant. Maybe easier than graphing a pot plant to another pot plant depending on your skill set. Can you climb like a monkey?:-P

One of my good friends actually roots his clones while they are still on the host mother..I havent asked the procedure yet but im very interrested in knowing..Im sure it just a matter of cutting into the branch and applying a root hormone and them wrapping lightly in a damp clothe..But thats just specualtion until i ask and find out for sure..Sorry if its a bit off topic.. :)
Air layering.

Me and a buddy used to do that, air layering, or something. You find a nice branch to clone off of. One with at least three node, but you want to go about two to three nodes back, and with a razor knife, cut into the root location you want, on the stem and split the stem with your knife with at 3/4 inceion. Spread it out a bit, apply root tone with a artist brush. Take regular clear plastic baggies and cut the bottoms with sizzor or a razor to make a spare, where as one end will have a pouch and the other over laping. Now take the pouches and fill with a small amount of your favorite soil mix, moisten pretty moist. Pull the pouch up against the cut stem, molding the soil around it and packing it to the stem lightly. Take the flap and tuck and fold around and place a piece of scottch tape to hold. Apply more to firmly hold to plant and location. Take care of your plant normally. If you notice the soil in the pouch getting too dry with no activity you can use an eyedroper to apply a few drops of water carefully, but you should see roots with in two weeks. Let it root firmly, then cut under root growth, remove plastic carefully and transplant.

Hello all. I was thinking about cloning two different strains in the same site of a deep water culture cloner, and when rooted transfer to a regular DWC system. Hydro offers any amount of roots the proper amount of nutrients. I just have to match growing heights but I think there is a string likely hood for success. Anyone actually try this technique yet, and anyone using hydro? Thanks everyone for thinking in kind, grow on brothers!

Grafting works and having a mother able to provide different clones to keep your plant count is a good idea and others have do e it.
