Grafting Question

10 years ago

Can a tomato stalk be grafted onto a potato root stock? And later can pepper branches be grafted onto that tomato stalk? It'll be cool to have one plant grow potatoes, tomatoes and a variety of peppers.

Vermiman, try researching, and or posting, in the tomato forum about the tomato + potato graft. I remember some kind of discussion along that line this past summer, i just don't remember if it was possible.

As for peppers + tomatoes, i have no direct experience, but i've read more than once that it was not possible.
