I was just reading about farmers grafting apple with pear trees etc. Got me thinking. But wouldn't it be the same as just breeding them?

Kinda. The true purpose of grafting is to put a plant onto a better (faster typically but also more hardy) root stock. So you can have a plant that is typically slow to grow a little bit faster. That's why it's so commonly done with fruit trees.

The really cool application for Cannabis is creating a multi strain mom. You can have all the flavors of the rainbow with only one plant towards your total limit.

So then a plant that was grafted would produce a different strain from a plant that was breed ?

each grafted branch would produce the strain grafted,, 100%.. has been done in journals on here many times. best one was trying to graft cannabis onto a , i think, willow tree. too cool. not positiver of the result there,, but was recent and could be searched,, cheers

I'm trying to learn genetics the best I can. I want to start breeding down the road so hopefully I can learn as much as there is. I'm going to look that up too. That sounds awesome.
