Can you graft two rooted plants together?

I understand you can get one cactus cutting to root into another cactus. But can you get two rooted cacti to also root into each other?

Yes, it's possible to graft multiple plants together. Some trees are grafted like this for symbolic reasons, and you can also do a 3-4 way impalement graft.

Are there any advantages to doing this besides for symbolic reasons? For example, cannabis absorbs different nutrients at different pH levels. Growers have to compromise by selecting a pH inbetween the ideal ranges. If you could have two root stocks grafted together at the trunk, each drinking from separate pots of targeted nutrients at their ideal pH levels... that plant could hypothetically be superior.

I don't know anything about cannabis, only cactus grafting. It will explode some scions but otherwise is more trouble than it's worth.

My dad used to do it all the time for roses, he'd get these big rose bushes with one color roses on one side and another on the opposite. Might work for something like that, but I don't think it would serve any purpose other than aesthetics.

I'm very new to grafting so I may not be using the terms correctly, but I think you're both referring to the traditional technique of separating a plant from its root system (cutting) and creating a (scion) by grafting the cutting to a host plant (rootstock). I understand that's a well known technique for getting multiple cultivars of flowers or fruits on one root stock, or improving the performance of the scion. But that's not the kind of grafting I'm curious about.

I'm interested in two rootstocks that are scion to each other. And not for purpose of combining multiple scions or boosting scions, but for combining multiple rootstocks that could share and boost one plant. I couldn't find any information about this even being experimented with so I'm not sure if it's even possible or practical. I guess a more simple experiment would be a hydroponic setup with the root mass of one plant isolated in separate chambers.

I don't think you have to be a cannabis grower to imagine the potential of this, if it is possible.
