What is your luck in Grafting a tomato plant?
What root stock did you use?
What scion did you use?
Can any variety of tomato scion be grafted to a root stock designed for grafting?
Thanks for any information you can offer !

You can buy grafted plants from some nurseries and seed sellers. They are silly expensive.
It is an advanced technique for specific problem circumstances. Do you have problems growing tomatoes now?
There is a website called tomatoville. Lots of forums on grafting. You might do deeper research there.
