Failure, :( Bummer, I figured it wasn't gonna work, I bumbled it WAY to much.
I'm not sure if I'll have enough time to get a graft onto that branch or not before I have to kick it to flower. Ohh well, It'll work eventually.

Pushing forward with it anyway,... cut the failed graft off, and tried again, this time a Durban poison shoot.
Tonight's efforts went smoothly, so in a few day's I'll know if it worked or not.
This little lady's gonna get to freakin big to try again before I have to move her to flower. :o
Was this a pairing of dis-similar stem structures, or just a fumble? :)Quote:

so it failed,... Tonight went well, and the graft is already all wilty!? :wtf:
Time will tell,... My first grafts looked like ass too, but perked up after a few day's.
Any luck on your end?
Not yet. I think I'm going with a Magus Genetics "Warlock" as a base. Put the big-girl into flower yesterday, looks real sturdy. Just transplanted the rooted cutting I'll be using into soil yesterday, too. I'll start slicing and dicing in maybe 2-3 weeks. :)Quote:

Very interesting stuff. I have a couple of Bonsai moms going. I'm going to clone one for grafting fun too! My veg / mom room is small so this is even more relevant. It would help keep the total plant count down too, which is always a good thing.
I want to see what happens when you flip one into flower.
2nd one was looking pretty good, but I messed it up trying to reposition the humidity bag,.... Thought I just had a hold on the bag but had a chunk of leaf too and pulled the graft out! :eek: :mad: :o
Had to kick the lights on a single strain.
I'm re-setting my grow. that was my last girl in Vege, now it's just my moms and I'm not cutting another clone to vege for a few weeks, I'll try again once I get some new baby's going. ;)
Iv done this with bonsai tress. Your best bet would be to find a thick branch to get a hole through it and then put your cut into and through the hole. Id use a harvested plant, which you should re veg first, keep it trimmed and fill it with many different strains used for clones only. So 1 mom with 5 or six strains on it. Id use rooting gel inside the hole and on the cut before getting it into the hole. It will work, im sorry i skip to the end and maby missed something, but gotta run and have other ideas too. So il stop back man, great way to keep your plant count down, one mom with lots of strains, it will work man, i know it will. But, still one plant with different strains only as in it would never join as one strain, ever.
Fun doing it too:rasta:
I'm definitely heading down this road. Just for the fun of it if nothing else. Plus I want to flower one of those mutant mom's at some point! How fun would that be?!Quote:

My reading on grafting suggests that you want to slot the graftee stem into the mother stem. So you cut the mother stem at an acute angle, open the cut stem, and insert your graftee stem... without getting too graphic... Also, I'm also not sure rooting hormone is a good idea. I think you just want to seal the wound so that air and airborne microbes can not get in. You can buy grafting jell but I'm betting it is just sugar water of some description.
I'm liking this grafting thread. Give us an update canni!
