    exactly what this thread needs. Thanks for your input

    Your right, lets post more off-topic criticism without even lending your opinion on the subject.

    Id love to know how you became so certain about the genetic effects of grafting?

    There is a lot to learn here at SAB :)

    Nicotine is found in the scion that has been transferred over from the stock

    Definitely interaction of at least some kind

    Epigenetics and all that jazz can come into play and affect parts of the plant that may germinate into sexual organs

    Additionally majority of the internal organelles of the cells that constitute the vascular system are moved to other parts of the plant after maturity.

    Vascular cells are very important in grafting. If these cells are polyploid and their nuclear and cellular contents are moved to other parts of the plant that then replicate you could have interaction.

    of course there is interaction. Otherwise the scion would die.

    If someone spat in your mouth, would you acquire their traits? Or would your children share some DNA with the spit donor?

    If it is on your side of the fence you have every right to poison what is on 'your' side. If that happens to affect what is on the other side woops.

    I have the same weed coming over my fence from the neighbor. Archaeol~ is dead right, you can poison anything on " your side" which is what ive been doing. Sadly it grows back every year!

    They are tough as guts. Sometime a good dose of roundup on a 30+ day seems to do nothing ... I normally apply every 2 days for 1-2 weeks.

    Sabber's are normally easy to spot, or smell.

    I can PM you my mobile number if this is your first time.

    Better directions can be found in the calendar entry. We are normally at one of the two blue markers in the map.
