Cantaloupe Grafted onto Cucumber

Cucumbers are aggressive growers so I thought I'd try grafting squash and melon (cantaloupe) onto them to see if there's an advantage. Really, this is a precursor to my 2023 grafting plans--a test.

Appreciate your videos Brent! You have an amazing collection of grafting and system building videos, along with micro greens. About time for classes with Brent, where you teach groups of paying people on skills and ideas.

I've considered it very briefly in the past, but I like nothing about the work involved probably because I don't need the money. My passion when not traveling is tomato breeding. When not that, well, traveling. Thanks for the kind words Matt!

Interesting. Thanks.

Was fun.

Not sure what the result is to graft it on a cucumber plant. Now I've seen it grafted on a pumpkin which can increase its immunity to some bacterial and stronger roots. I've also seen it grafted on a zucchini to get an ornamental fruit plant, like a miniature cantaloupe, maybe grafting on cucumber will yield similar result.

Why cut the roots of the original? Why re root

[@C3Voyage]

It's grafting and how grafting is done. Not sure where you saw re-rooting.

This is fascinating. But. I cannot for the life of me figure out why?? *laughs* okay,you just said the same thing. There is no benefit, it’s just for fun.
