something else i considered doing was trying different grafting stock for a certain type of cactus but think some problems

1. lack of current information

2. cost/budget

...and if you're thinking of involving the rest of us you'd need to take into account different grafting skills. Mine are very poor!

for the grafting experiment, another idea could be:

grafting seedlings on different sizes of pereskiopsis (say 5 cm., 10 cm., 15 cm. ...) and see what difference it makes on the speed of growth.

it would be easy and cheap.
