Thank you for capturing this for the folks who had to work instead of come play with cactus friends. Gonna drop everything for the next meetup. So glad to see the master with such simple tips that make such a huge difference

I love grafting! I recently did my first two grafts. I cut two lopho pups off of a cluster and did the Vladimir the Impaler technique on a couple pereskia’s. They took really well. They’re actually pushing pups already and it’s only been about 2 weeks maybe. I love my cactus collection. I enjoy learning new knowledge on the subject.

Great video! I watched it at least 4 or 5 times before I tried it. And I also took you advice and got that big yellow Dewalt brand knife and it rocks. Just $10 at Home Depot. It gave me super smooth cuts right through prickly pear. I just upped a video on grafting trichocereus onto prickly pear/opuntia. So far so good. I'm going to try it outdoors in the spring and I'm definitely borrowing the pantyhose idea...just picked up 5 pair at dollar tree.

Very cool, thanks for sharing. Hope yall had a good meet up (looks like!) I'm very new to grafting myself and the more and more of these i see, especially when the person makes it so simple (and says it simple), the more the mystery and trepidation fades. Next season for sure.

This is the way... only thing is I usually make all my cuts except the last cut to the stock plant 2-3 days ahead of time if I am doing alot of grafts, then the last cut to the top is made the day of grafting leaving the cut piece in place until I have multiple scions prepared, then the top piece of the stock is removed and the scion firmly attached preferably with cut strips of stocking. This man is a legend, he even has Frogwood!

If I graft one Peyote on a Trichocereus Pachanoi at the end result do I become more peyote's or the peyote grows just bigger and faster?

Informative. When do you place the stock in soil to root? After the graft takes?

Im new to this and just learning and im honestly curious at what is the reason or point to grafting on to a rootstock with no roots?
@kq6up
Жыл бұрын
Because they are easy to give away as it generally takes no time for the rootstock to take root once planted.

@@kq6up It can take up to two months to grow roots and isn't the point of grafting to get pups and speed up growth. Doesn't it take a rootstock with a good root system to push growth, a good root system can take months to a year to develop.

@@stevenwayne2606 this is at a meetup. Unrooted rootstock is plentiful and portable. Rooted -- not so much. If I do it at home and it is a valuable scion, I put it on the biggest baddest PC in my yard because it will become gigantic in a years time. Again, these are giveaway's at a meetup.

@@stevenwayne2606 this was in LA. Not just done at meetups, but maybe done for shipping too. Easier than cleaning soil off of a rooted cut for shipping. When you have been doing this a long time, you will have more patience and not worry about whether or not a plant has roots. As they all root eventually.
