Grafting

[sam]

Has anyone here tried grafting on indoor or outdoor grows to increase yield or outside grows to increase disease & insect resistance? For those of you that do not know the roots of the plant determine the plants disease/insect resistance and has a lot to do with yield. An example that I have thought about trying would be to find local(wild) weed/hemp seed that is resistant to the problems in my area and graft the good plants to them.
Years ago I cross bred some really good Afghan and local hemp with mixed results. The plants all looked like the local hemp(good thing) with great disease & insect resistance, but some where mind blowing good like the Afghan and some were complete shit with nothing in between. I thought about back crossing the good hybrid seed I kept with the original Afhgan but never got it done.

You can graft Hops to Marajuana roots and it is supposed to produce THC filled Hops. Don't know as haven't tried it, but I'm going too. Imagine the iso you could make if true.

Total myth. I tried this back in the 80's and all that happens is you waste good weed seed to grow regular hops.

So you got hops to grow then?

Yes they are in the same family of plants. The % that survived the grafting was very low because I did not know as much about grafting then as I do now. If you want to know more about how to graft let me know and I will write up a detailed "how to" for you. Just let me know what you plan of grafting(plant to roots, plant to plant, ect.).
