Grafting Autoflowers

[Bromeo]

**Journal note**

If I do a heavily arched (90°) LST to get the plants closer to graft together the plants will naturally produce more colas. I hadn't originally thought about that. Its not going to change my plan just a note to myself. I need to anticipate this and make sure I have the space avelable. I guess some of the noob is weaning off. I'm planing ahead.

Man its like watching Dr. Frankenstein build his creation from a window in his lab LOL one main mother grafted to 5 dif strains sounds crazy then pollinate it and breed them back to each other would be nutss ..I cant wait to try this lol..we are always trying to make room in the tent ..Just grow them together lol

I began the lst process to get them crossing over so a can make the splice to start the graft. I know it looks like a clusterfunk right now but in a few days I'll have it ironed out . I'm going to continue to work the lst until they.....seem right?.? Anyways here is what I got done tonight.

OK all 3 remaining albinos turned out to be girls. So I decided to graft all 3 together tonight. I first released the lst to see how they stood naturally. You can see in the pic that it was kind of a no brainer. They pretty much just fit together.

I lightly abraded the portion of stem I want to connect using a scalpel. Then pulled them together wrapped with medical tape and tightened with a pipe cleaner as a clamp. I can adjust the pipe cleaner as needed. I brushed the cut areas with water treated with great white micro. I also watered with water treated with superthrive. I'm going to leave her/them?? alone and let nature do its thing. Enjoy

man this looks like fun i saw a hanging 3 pot that might be fun to try out grafting some small ones.I cant wait to see what happens but should have threw a twist in the mix..another strain..maybe next time.

When I have more experience I'm going to give that a try doobie. Not sure how two strains that grow at two different rates will work but might be interesting. I do want to try this with some slow growing strains. Like a haze. A little more time to work them together and allow to develop.

Hmm well the Buddha strains have gone 90+ days for me and grow big if you like that.

Holy shit did I ever fuck up this project. First mistake, I refuse to admit my vision blows and one of the grafted plants turned out to be male. No biggie...right??? Just cut the little dude out of there....right??? Wrong. Cut the right upper portion but wrong lower section...result? Two dead plants in under a minute. Epic fail. Fortunately the misguided scissors missed the healthiest female so I still have one alive any growing. I can't friggin believe I did this but shit happens. All Juliet could muster up the nerve to say was "put it in your journal" snickering under her breath.

Can't have success without failure:thumbs:

Well..... When Edison invented the light bulb he first failed a ton of times, when asked about why he kept going after failure after failure he said, I didn't fail I learned what won't work. Keep trucking, I'd love to see this work! Tons of grow karma sent your way!
