Have had a few people ask about my setup with grafts, thought I'd share.
I'm clumbsy and my hands are beat to hell from a rough life & career. Can't feel a lot in my right hand, especially holding small objects.
Makes grafting small cactus a pain sometimes 😂
I usually have my pereskiopsis in a 32oz deli cup, two in each pot.
I water a day before the graft, when I'm finished I don't use any traction/rubber bands/plastic wrap to secure the two grafts. I'll use some pere glue from the leaves 😂.
But I place another deli cup on top, usually a 16oz with 4 3-4mm vent holes made around the perimeter at the top and covered with tape. Use paper tape like you would find in the first aid section, not the cloth tape.
I vent around a week, completley removed by two weeks.
Same stuff I used in mycology when I would do small runs on 6qt shoeboxes. Tape another tub to the top for some more headroom and allow them to breathe, a double tub or "dub tub"
Used this the last two rounds of grafting and haven't lost any to my own clumsiness!
It's working well for me so far

Can we get a zoomed out view of this? I am very intrigued
