- Grafting is a useful technique in saving a rotting cactus. Here Adam demonstrated how he saved his dying Epithelantha micromeris by grafting it on a myrtillocactus stock.

Good stuff man!
Thank you!
Cinnamon is good for fresh cuts also
Space powder😄....thank you for the video I will definitely follow advice as my previous attempts at grafting have failed.
Really interesting video, simple but essential, I am sure that thanks to your suggestions and your experience I will soon be able to make grafts too here in Italy, where they are not practiced.Many thanks, continue with other experiments and new videos if you can.
The 45' angle on the scion is not necessary as long as sufficient pressure is applied throughout the fusion phase, remember the rootstock will also recede so it'll provide some space for the edges of the scion to curl a bit (but, again, this isn't an issue if enough pressure is applied). Just my 2-cents, enjoyed the content :D
the lack of spines on lophophoras makes them easy to graft for anyone wanting to learn and practice.
Great video!
Hi David, thanks for this. Any chance of an update? Did the graft take? I've only done one graft that took (LW on Pereskiopsis) and to my eye that scion looked too squishy - like it wasn't going to take. I'd love to be proved wrong. The title is after all "Grafting Made Easy" so I think we deserve to know if it was in fact easy... Cheers.
Nice
Why do you off center the graft? Shouldnt it be directly in the middle of the cactus?
I love that one, your first graft, its wild looking! Thanks for the info, I have a few graft, one a big Coral. No idea what the stock is, round and thick.
Hi , May i know how did you reduce the rootstock to be able to fit in the pot? Degraft or cut the rootstock shorter? Thanks
cactus pilosocereus azureus es alucinógeno?
Could you please share information on the aluminum powder? Thanks for sharing the techniques
Yes, please, can you share where you buy the aluminum powder, or what is its chemical composition. Thank you in advance. greetings from Guadalajara Mexico.
Do you cut that 99% iso? I've heard it's better to have more water in it for applications like this, kills more microbes because it makes the alcohol stickier if that makes sense.
You are correct. High percentage alcohol (ethyl or isopropyl) is more of a desiccant than a disinfectant. 60-70% would be better
I'm curious what that beautiful rootstock was? As would love to have some stock to try to look good growing on.
Another good video Adam! Why do you graft to unrooted rootstock? Can you explain what you do to root the stock with update, how much time it takes? Did you just put graft on dirt in pot or no dirt wire other cuttngs? Rooting hormone? How does it look now a few years later? The next steps would be helpful to me and others. Thanks!
