It worked fine. I grafted cannabis tops to hops roots, and the grafts worked great. The plants grew normally, and looked like hops. Only problem is the psychoactive ingredients got lost in the shuffle. The result did not get anyone stoned.

edit to correct: It was hops tops to cannabis roots. (duh!)
