Someone close to me requested a "calm" grafting video. Here it is. This is one of the ways to graft. I used the medical tape for stability and protection from the rubber bands (not seen in video). Some people may say "you don't need rubber bands if you're using medical tape" or whatever and that may be true for seedlings, but for basal pups off a HUGE cactus, rubber bands are needed for that mix needed extra pressure to ensure the union forms – strong bond. I don't normally use iso to clean the blade but this is a very special cactus. I hope for super monstrose growth and heavy notches 🤤
Hope you enjoy, have a good day 🌵

You don’t normally sterilize before cutting? I sterilize every time hahaha whether its cactus or tree grafts. Never know what you’re dropping off in a fresh wound.
What’s the rootstock?
