Treetop grafting

hello h/m and all you guys
i took this pic yesterday of the little graft, it is still doing just fine, however it now shows just a little yellowing on the tips of its leaves this could be a sign that its regecting the nutes that the vine is supplying or its not getting enough, i hope not as this just might bump it off, it looks healthy though and is very strong other than that, the vine is almost ready for its first harvest its second harvest is normaly about three weeks after that, maybe it will send the graft some stronger nutes after i have harvested, ....... the second pic shows a apple tree graft, i dont realy know why i posted this, i think i remember talking about what grafts look like, and just how much there used in todays world of gardens and fruit farms, this has grow in my garden now for about 5/6 years its root stock ( lower section of tree) is a slow growing dwarf apple, and the top is a heavy cropping regular russette apple, the result is a great little tree that can be grown in a small inviroment and still yeild a heavy crop, the same thing can be done with most weed plants, if you have the time to mess around.

hey i got an idea why dont we just graft leaves of other plants on to a cannabis plant and get rid of its fan leaves???????? then it would be disguised. salvia leaves???? hmmmm naturally fused salvinorin and thc
hey happy can you pull the banage from that graft yet? is it flowering?

hi harmonicminor
yeah mate this little graft is still going for it, i have not watered it for over a week, it does not get any rain water as it is shelterd from any rain, and its still looking strong, i did see a little browning at the tips of the leaves, and the last bit of the stalk of the weed graft has started to shrink back, but on the whole it looks cool, i cant really take the bandaged off yet as i want to be sure for sure that its bonded, something must have hapened by now thats deffinate, i cant see any roots trying to creap out of the bandaged so maybe it might be working again. i will take the bandaged off just when its the very last moment before our frosts will kill it, if its worked, i have an even more difficult task of trying to get a clone from the grape vine, if i can then bingo, i will have to do that indoors as the weather is now getting cold, i will keep ya posted as things happen, .......... peace .................happy ..............

maybe next year try it like in early june so it has plenty of time to grow and maybe even flower

hi h/m hi hubble
ok guys the time is coming soon, when i have to either leave the clone still atached to the vine and see how it copes, or i take a clone from the vine and hope i can root it with the graft still atached,........

either way its decision time. my gut instinct is telling me to try and keep it alive in a slightly warmer climate, if i were to bring it in underlights it would proberbly go into shock, so maybe in the green house and sheltered with bubble rap will keep it going for a few more weeks, if i dont do something soon for sure it will die.

i could leave it atached to the vine and some how rig up a bubble rap shelter for it. but then that might drag attension and not be as steathy, allthough thats not a major issue.

the little graft is still alive and has not drooped, it aint grown that much in size, and looks reasonably ok, however it has now started to develop signs that its not coping with the cold nights. its larger fan leaves are really burning with the cold, and its time to do something about it.

i have decided i will atempt a clone from the vine with the graft still atached, i will do this tommorow and photograph the events.

grape vines root better for me around this time of year, so now is proberbly the best chance for the vine to root. if the vine does not start to root i will know fairly quickly.

if it dont work, then i will perform an autopsy on it and see just how things went. that would make good pics also .......
................peace....... happy............

Hey Guys,

Just stumbled on this thread.I've thought about this many times also. I've thought that pure landbased races would prolly be the best donors for this experiment. Just a thought.

This sounds so cool...I wonder what the new leaves would look like?

Maybe if this works, you could create a new hybrid plant species. It wont be called marijuana anymore, so it will be legal for a short while, until the government cracks down.

Good luck, man

Very interesting thread. Makes me want to participate in some experiments too.

Maybe you guys are going about this all wrong....maybe, hear me out. You should try grafting something "TO" the mj plant instead of viceversa. Cause the parasite will become like the host. Therfore, if my theory is right you guys might have more sucees. Good luck and happy growing. :)

what was the end result happy chappy
