The contest is simple: graft various genetics onto a cannabis plant, bring the plant to flowering, and harvest each genetic at the right time.
The graft must thrive and develop its own flowering.

Cannabis is like any other plant, it's very easy to graft. You cut a branch, attach it to some part of the recipient plant, secure it with something, and with enough moisture, a magical tissue called a callus forms, which allows both plants to unite.

In scientific terms, when plants are grafted, the tissues of both begin to interact at the cellular level.

The cambium layers of both plants, located just beneath the bark, align and produce new cells, forming a connecting bridge we call the "callus."

This callus is crucial for the success of the graft, as it allows the exchange of nutrients and water between the two plants.

There are several ways to graft, and one of the most effective and easiest is the one Milton shows in his approach grafting tutorial.


In this method, both plants remain in their own pots while a branch from the donor plant is attached to the stem or a branch of the recipient plant. After about 20 days, both plants will have joined, and it will be safe to separate them.

The graft will continue to grow as if it were a natural branch, and you can enjoy its fruits at the right time.

Materials:

- Several plants of different genetics.
- Tape or clip to secure.
- Sharp scalpel or box cutter.

What do I need to participate?
You need a permit to grow in your country (if you're in Argentina, that would be the ReproCann), two plants of different genetics, a scalpel or box cutter, and some tape or a clip to attach the plants during grafting.

Do the flavors and characteristics of the grafted plants mix?
No, each grafted branch retains the characteristics of the original genetic. You won't change the flavor or properties of the grafted genetic.

How long does it take for a graft to join?
Approximately 20 days. This is the time normally required for the callus to form and the two plants to unite securely.

What happens if I graft autoflowering and photoperiod plants together?
It's possible, but keep in mind that autoflowering plants have a shorter life cycle, so they will flower before the photoperiod plants. This can make it a bit tricky to manage the grow, but it's all part of the challenge.

How many genetics can I graft onto a single plant?
The only limit is your skill! You can graft as many genetics as you can manage on one plant, as long as each graft has the necessary time to join properly.

If my country only allows 9 flowering plants, can I have more genetics in my indoor grow with this technique?
Yes! Our idea is that you can have many genetics in your indoor grow without exceeding the legal limit of flowering plants. With this technique, you can have one plant with several grafted genetics. For example, you can have 5 genetics on one plant or 40 genetics distributed across 9 plants. Your skill is the only limit!

Can grafting be done outdoors and indoors?
Yes, it doesn't matter if your grow is outdoors or indoors. As long as the plant has the right conditions of light, temperature, and humidity, grafting can work in both environments.

Why is Mantecol so delicious?
It's impossible to know.

What should I do if my graft doesn't work?
It's common for grafts not to take the first time. Don't get discouraged! Try again, and remember that practice makes perfect. Ensure that your plants are healthy and well-hydrated during the process.
